It's been 3 long years and Jose's case is still open. Any updates? None. Any info on getting closer to catching those who did him harm? None. But, if Jose were able to speak to us from up above, he would let us all know that we should not mourn his life but celebrate all the good times we had with him while he was with us. Miss you godbrother! Continue watching over all of us who love you, protect us and guide us. Continue to keep us safe and know that you are always on our minds.
