    Luis,

    It will be one year ago tomorrow that you left us. In that one tragic moment, the lives of all those that you touched were forever changed…

    You are always in my heart and never forgotten. I am comforted and humbled by the continuing outpour of compassion from everyone.

    I love you…
    Gail

    RIP 1967-2007

    Fond memories. To this day when asked I extol his virtues. In memory, people speak kindly of those who have passed us, irrespective of what the truth may have been. Luis, though, really was everything we say and more. I have forever marked by his friendship, and forever changed by the fleeting moments I knew him.

    Gail, I am sure it must have been a tough year of adjustment for you. Luis's memories will stay with us for a lifetime!

    Whenever I see anything written about him I feel unfortunate for having never met Luis.

    He always made quite an entrance at the SR events.

    I wanted to get this out before I flew out again for business.

    Luis was certainly a blessing to those that met him.

    I am at a lost for words; except, I am sorry Gail for your lost. I never met Luis but my first SR event happened to be his memorial. I have thought frequently about his tragedy and it is an honor for me to feel emotionally touched by his memory. RIP.

    Luis was and always will be, a force of nature; With a smile.

    He lives on in us all when we smile and embrace.
