My beloved family, my heart will never be the same, but I know Israel left a beautiful legacy with Israel, Jr (Tito), Ivan, and Eddie. He loved you guys with a fierce love of a father. You brought him great pride everyday of his life. You are GOOD men, and I know you will give him honor always. Miriam, I know your heart will have a void, but know that you are a great wife and mother. Israel loved you with a love that is not seen anymore, and I know his spirit will live in your heart until you see him again. I love you strong woman of God. Thank you for taking good care of him all these years. Israel, you were the best brother a sister can ever want...kind, loving, strong, and fierce when it came to your family. I thank God to have been blessed with you in my life. Oh how I will miss you! Until I see you again, my beloved brother, Rest In Eternal peace.
