*Note: This is all compilation of things I've written ever since Carlos passed*
Carlos
When Joey died, I was devastated. Despite the fact that Joey and I weren't close but he was such a respectable guy is what had a major impact on me. As they say, "People won't remember what you said or did but they'll remember how you made them feel." With Joey, he made me feel good, he made me feel respected. Not a lot of people are like him. We weren't close but after he died, I was like whoa! I would've never expected somebody so young to die. I learned from his death to always be nice and respectful to every body you meet because that's how Joey was and people will remember him the most for that. We weren't the best of friends but after he died, I felt like I lost my best friend. That's what being nice to people does, you have a major impact on them. Carlos, was another one of my co workers from Solutions who I grew to be close friends with. Him and I were much closer than Joey and I were. I saw Carlos like my little brother. Just like me, he was devastated about Joey passing away. It hit Carlos harder because they were close. After Joey passed, we had a mutual feeling, we both were heart broken. Before Joey died, I was confident about death, I wasn't scared to die. I was more ready and accepting of the fact that I'm just living to die. I expressed that to Carlos and he agreed. GOD takes us away for a reason. That's the way I thought of it before Joey passed but afterwards, my insight changed. I worked with Carlos two days after Joey's wake and in spite of everything we spoke about that day, I told him "call me if you want to vent about Joey, talk about it," he said "of course." The next day, Carlos dies. Sunday May 8th, on Mother's Day. I found out about Carlos' death the same way I found about Joey's, Facebook. It was toward the end of class that I stood up and walked out the classroom because I didn't want anybody to see how anxious I was. I nearly had a full blown panic attack, I felt my heart pounding and a shortness of breath. I walked outside and tried to call Carlos but it went straight to voicemail. I know it sounds silly that I called him but I was in disbelief. I immediately called my girlfriend Elesha and screamed, "I don't know what the f*** is going on! Carlos died!" She tried to comfort me and she told me to try and find out the facts first before I get carried away. I called Joel, another one of my co workers and he confirmed it. I was hoping he would tell me it wasn't true, false identity, something. "Carlos is good." But no, he confirmed that it was my little brother Carlos. I broke down on the phone quite a bit and told him how my day was spent with him on Saturday, I bought Carlos breakfast and all that. My last day with him was a good day. That was the day I kind of knew, this guy is definitely a little brother to me. I said it to myself that day because I was still unsure whether to put a label on our friendship but in life and death, that's my little brother. RIP Carlos.
Out of every friend I ever had, Carlos was the realest. I lost so many friends and in hindsight I never had a true friend but Carlos was the truest. Posthumously he was my best friend now that I think about it. I don't think I'll ever find another friend as good as he was. I'm torn a part. I miss him dearly.
"What's good in the hood?" Every time we saw each other that's how you greeted me. I'm gonna miss hearing that. We became friends as soon as you started at Solutions. Prior to us being friends, I was very skeptical about making new friends because of my past experiences but you were a really good guy Carlos. You made the workplace easy going the same way Joey did. Whenever we both had problems at work, we would vent to each other and give each other advice. I remember when I put you on to Qdoba, you weregrateful towards me for taking you off Chipotle food. I didn't like putting labels on my friendships anymore but I wanted so badly to call you my little brother because you were that close to me. You was like my little brother and I'm gonna miss you. After Joey died, we spoke about it and we were both torn by his passing. Just the day before you died, we was working together and I bought you breakfast and we sat in my car just talking about Joey and how crazy it was he died. Not even a week after Joey passed, you died. its ironic. For the short amount of time I knew you, you grew to be my little brother and I'm gonna miss you. RIP Carlos. GOD bless the dead.
On May 2 my guy Joey passed away, six days later on May 8, my friend Carlos died . I was just with Carlos on Saturday at work, during our break I went and treated us to breakfast and we just sat in my car eating and talking about how devastated we were about Joey dying. After our shift was over I told him to call me if he wanted to talk about Joey, get things off his chest. Now last night he dies. I nearly had a full blown panic attack after hearing the news, my chest is tight and I can barely breath. Carlos was like my little brother, I can't fucking believe whats going on. On Mother's Day too. A mother should never have to bury their child now you got Joey's and Carlos' moms suffering. I can't believe this is happening. RIP to my little brother Carlos
I had a dream Carlos was directing me to a parking spot and I was just cracking up at him.

Carlos played baseball with my son at SCCC and came to our home a couple of times. He was so upbeat and very polite. I am so sorry to hear of his passing.
