My name is Jessica, Abraham's wife. My family and I appreciate the huge amount of support, donations, and kind words. I know that everyone’s day comes when God wants to take them home with him. However, I never imagined it would be this soon. It’s crazy how life works. This is the most heartbreaking thing I’ve ever experienced. We had our whole lives planned out. We were in the search for a home, we planned on getting married, we hoped to have 3 more kids, we talked about all the places we wanted to visit together and all the adventures we wanted to experience. He was the most goal oriented person. If you knew him, you knew that when he set a goal he wouldn’t stop until he achieved it. He was a hardworking and loving father. He was one year closer to finishing with his associates in police science and closer to becoming a police officer. Just recently he was talking to me about wanting to get his bachelors to become a detective. He wanted to change the community and make a difference, he wanted to be a change in the system. He had one big goal, which was to build his own basketball park here on the southside, and that’s something I pray one day I can fulfill for him and have his legacy remembered. As a result of someone's selfish act, the world lost such a beautiful soul, a father, a friend, a brother, a son, my husband. It’s hard to even think about all the things he's now going to miss out on. All of Aubrey’s birthday parties, her first day of school, her graduation, he won’t be able to help me when she wants to start dating, and he won’t experience our grandchildren. I just wish this was a dream, that I could just wake up and have him in my arms again. I know he’s here and I just want to thank him for all the experiences and memories he left with me. We have a huge piece of him with us always, our sweet baby Aubrey. Because of him I’ve gotten to experience a different type of love. He also introduced me to the most amazing people. People that will now always be in my life and I will love as if they're my family. I will make sure Aubrey knows the amazing person that he was and the loving family and friends that he has. I will never let her forget him. The only advice I have to give to everyone out there is this; Cherish those around you. Don't forget to say “I love you”, hold your loved ones tight for me tonight and every night after that, always check up on your friends, spend as much time as you can with the ones you love, because whether we like it or not, they won’t always be here. I know that I’m not the only one feeling this loss. Everyone out there, I'm with you. I feel it too. We’ll never forget his jokes, his contagious laugh, him bragging about his honda, I mean his ferrari. I just can’t believe I’ll no longer have him physically there with me, to sleep next to, to wake up with, to eat with, to go to for advice and to be there for Aubrey. It's just so hard. I love you all, thank you guys for everything. He was survived by his wife, Jessica; His daughter, Aubrey Camila; His father, Angel; His stepmom, Betty; His mother, Daena; His stepdad, Isaac; His 6 siblings, Angel, Erisbel, Jacob, Geraldin, Sebastian, and Angel Gael; and His grandparents Hortencia and Serapio.
