It's been 3 years since you went away. People still come by La Borinqueña asking for you; we tell them you're at peace. The pan dulce isn't the same without you. Your buddies from the race track miss seeing you throughout the week. Ariel asks to be taken to the places you liked, we're surprised at how many there are. We tell funny stories about you so Nati will laugh. We hear many serious stories from those you helped and touched. Siempre estaras en nuestros corazones. You will always be in our hearts.
