    1 Cómo te extraño mi princesa, tan dulce y buena. La vida se me hace imposible sin ti.
    1 You always saw good in the worst people. I wished you had been able to recognize evil.
    1 you would have been able to be here today and we would not be suffering like we are.
    1 We will meet again in a better place
    1 I want you back so badly. It is such a weird sensation of emptiness...
    1 Everyday it feels like it just happened. It is a sensation of fear and hopelessness
    1 I want to start running and not stop. I want to see you. I miss you so much...
    1 You were the best mom, the best sister, the best friend...you were an angel
    1 Love is indestructible and our love for you did not die with you and it only gets stronger.
    1 It feels like it just happened. We miss you so much
    1 Everyday feels like it just happened. The pain is so unbearable...
    1 When I think of much you must have suffered in those last seconds, my eyes fill with tears.
    1 Why you? Why you? Why you? I wonder why bad hints happen to good people like you
    1 You deserved a very good and long life. You did so much good and spread so much joy
    1 I want to scream and never stop. I want to wake up from this nightmare
    1 Every new day the pain is worst than the day before.
    1 Terrible loss for us. We will never be a normal family again
    1 Why did this happened to you? Wake up with that question and go to bed with that question
    1 We will never hug you again. We will never see your honest, candid smile again.
    1 Mother’s Day is coming up and you will not be with us...one more year of sadness

    1 Tocaste tantas vidas de una manera tan positiva
    1 Muñeca, cómo te extrañamos
    1 Te arrancaron la vida
    1 I would give up anything to see you one more time
    1 I would give anything to hear your sweet voice one more time
    1 You feel so close but so far
    1 So much suffering
    1 You must have been so scared and suffered so much…
    1 I think of that and I can’t breath. How cruel and horrendous
    1 Evil, so evil
    1 Miss you princess
    1 daria lo que fuera por verte por cinco minutos aunque fuera
    1 Your birthday is coming up...and we can't see you...
    1 I leave it all to God. Dios es grande
    1 Every day without you is a nightmare
    1 Que falta me haces. Tu siempre sabias que hacer
    1 Siempre le veías el lado positivo a las cosas
    1 Cuanto te necesitamos
    1 I want to scream none stop until I can’t hear my own voice
    1 I want to know why
    1 Why, why, why
    1 Why this happened to you
    1 Words can’t describe how we feel
    1 Our lives are over. Everything changed.
    1 We miss you so much. More everyday
    1 It is so hard to live without you…the days are so long…
    1 We can’t stop thinking of how those last seconds were…how frightening it was
    1 And how much you suffered
    1 Our souls are helplessly crying…and in constant, profound pain
    1 A heinous crime
    1 He took your life and ours because we all died with you three years ago
    1 We miss you princess
    1 No one has the right to take the life of another human being
    1 We miss you so much…there are no words to describe our sorrow
    1 My Princess, what am I going to do without you?
    1 Why, why, why? Why I ask myself every minute of the day
    1 how someone can commit such a horrendous, coward crime…
    1 Then, I realize that evil does exists. Evil is real…you were too innocent to recognize evil
    1 You were the definition of good and only saw good in people.
    1 Who would have told me I would not see you again?
    1 Who would have told me I would not hug you again or hear your sweet, calming voice…
    1 I miss your candid smiles, I miss your good sense of humor, and miss everything about you
    1 Life is just not the same without you…nothing is like it used to be
    1 Life will not be what it used to be because you are not with us
    1 You are not physically with us…
    1 Gun violence destroyed our family
    1 So many families suffering due to gun violence
    1 It happens again and again and again
    1 Something has to be done by lawmakers and it has to be done fast
    1 You did not deserve to suffer like that. You were the best person I have ever met
    1 You were honest, generous, simply a very sincere and good person
    1 You liked people and always saw the best in people
    1 Three years later and we still can’t assimilate that you are no longer here
    1 We need you
    1 It is so heart breaking to even try to imagine the moments of horror you went through…
    1 I feel like screaming and never stopping
    1 One part of me is dead too…
    1 You were meant to live a long life, to be loved, to be treated like the princess that you were…
    1 I wait for that phone call everyday…I wake up hoping that it is not true
    1 I want to hear your voice again…you understood me like nobody else
    1 You had a humble elegance, a natural beauty
    1 A special warmth in your eyes
    1 Beautiful inside and outside
    1 So much sorrow, so much pain, so much suffering…how are we going to live without you?
    1 Another Father’s Day coming up, birthdays…and you are not with us
    2 You were so easy to love and so hard to live without
    1 Miss you…no words can describe what we are going through
    1 The hardest thing is to even try to imagine what you went through
    1 It is so horrific, so cruel, so against nature and i humane
    1 Beautiful person
    1 A loving mother, loyal friend, best daughter….
    1 This is so painful, so devastating.
    1 So much pain for these two families…so much suffering for you two
    1 Not a single minute passes that we do not miss you
    1 You were amazing people, loving parents…you deserved to live
    1 Want to hug you
    1 Want to see you
    1 Your beautiful smile brightened up a room
    1 Washed your daughters’ school backpacks and shoes
    1 Helped them until very late at night with school projects and went to all parents meetings
    1 Such a loving mother
    1 Animal lover
    1 It is hard to asimílate what they did to you
    1 You will be in our hearts forever
    1 You were so easy to love
    1 Sending my heart to you in heaven
    1 Not a minute of the day goes by that we do not miss you
    1 Miss your sense of humor, your kindness, your smiles
    1 They took you from us so soon
    1 Reality hits us harder each day
    1 Mi corazón está roto para siempre
    1 Nos quitaron la vida junto contigo
    1 Tu familia está destruida y con tanto dolor
    1 Tus padres están muertos en vida
    1 Fuiste víctima de tanta maldad
    1 Tu tenias el alma blanca y eras verdaderamente buena
    1 No todo el mundo es bueno y eso lo aprendimos a partir de tu partida
    1 Yo se toda la bondad que había en tu corazin
    1 I saw you stopping at a bus stop and giving rides to random old people to their houses
    1 I witness the good person that you were.
    1 You are soooo missed and loved
    1 Your smile lit up a room
    1 You were the kind of person that gave others what you were wearing
    1 I remember one day I complimented your purse and you asked for a Publix bag
    1 Emptied the purse and gave it to me right there and then, just like that…
    1 You had a very generous, good heart
    1 They cut your life so short…left us heartbroken forever
    1 Such a horrific crime
    1 Titi, thank you for always being there, for your love, for your sweetness and humbleness
    1 So many memories of when we were little…always kind to me, always there for me
    1 Always attentive to everyone’s needs…and I am not talking about material needs…
    1 You were the person that was always easy to talk to because you understood, you cared, you loved
    1 I remember your long black hair and those black eyes that showed your soul
    1 So devoted to your family
    1 We miss you so much, it hurts
    1 Everyday since that day is a gray day…
    1 No more true happiness for this family.
    1 Parents without their daughter
    1 Two daughters without their mom
    1 A family in profound pain
    1 Mi Rosita
    1 Back here again…I can’t believe it has been 4 years since we lost you
    1 I think of you every hour of the day
    1 Life is so hard without you…no words can describe the despair and sorrow we have
    1 This is a terrible nightmare we can’t wake up from.
    1 Very difficult to think of all the pain you went through
    1 during the last few minutes of your life…you did not deserve it
    1 How cruel and inhumane…
    1 The opportunity to meet your grandkids was taken from you
    1 They would have loved you bc you were so loving
    1 We are all so devastated
    1 You were selfless and caring…you were simply an amazing human being
    1 Warm, sweet, gentle, genuine…
    1 Forever my Princess Titi & the most beautiful person I will forever try to embody.
    1 As I've gotten older the idea of you being gone has been harder to grasp.
    1 4 years have passed and it still doesn’t feel real.
    1 The complete and utter disregard of someone’s life with the pull of a trigger.
    1 How could someone be so inhumane?
    1 I hurt thinking of the life you had left to live
    1 and the relationship we could’ve continued to prosper as you witnessed me getting older
    1 I looked up to you in so many ways--
    1 I aspired to have your beautiful lucious hair,
    1 and your inability to display hatred towards others
    1 My favorite form of being comforted is listening to the few voice messages I have left from you.
    1 Your soft voice full of love is the perfect solution in any time of desperation and lonliness.
    1 You were the person I looked forward to seeing most every holiday.
    1 Your selflessness was portrayed in every one of your actions and words.
    1 A core memory I have with you is sharing our love for the red and blue sour patch kids.
    1 I can't eat them without thinking of you
    1 you will continue to be my role model for the rest of my existence
    1 my heart yearns for just one last warm hug
    1 I love you so much and I will for the rest of eternity
    1 Each day is more difficult than the other one without you. This is too heartbreaking, too difficult…
    2 When you were around, bad things did not feel so bad
    1 Just because your presence in itself was comforting
    1 We are stuck in time , living the past and the present
    1 Never felt so lost
    1 Con tu partida se fue nuestra vida entera…
    1 La vida se nos convirtió solo en lágrimas
    1 We miss you so much that I can’t describe it
    1 La vida no tiene razón ni sentido sin ti
    1 Tantos sueños apagados, tantas cosas q no hicimos y es tan difícil llenar el espacio q dejaste
    1 Tu risa, tu alegria, tu mirada transparente…fue una fortuna tenerte con nosotros
    1 Nos faltó tiempo
    1 Tenías una vida por delante y tanto amor por dar
    1 Eras el sol de nuestra familia
    1 Princesa siempre estarás con nosotros y en nuestros corazones
    1 Te amamos
    1 We can’t go on without you
    1 The pain of losing you and knowing how much you suffered to die does not let us breath
    1 Tu fuiste toda luz y asi seguiras dinde estes, nuestra luz
    1 My mother was too good for this earth 💔
    1 she was the type of person to take the clothes off her back to give to someone in need
    1 she was always giving random old ladies rides whwn she saw them walking on the street
    1 never met a more compassionate, giving human being
    1 it was easy to make her smile, she enjoyed the little things
    1 the family that did this to you is a manifestation of the devil here on earth and they will pay
    1 rotten jealous monsters
    1 they could never be half as good as you
    1 you were beautiful on the outside and inside
    1 the family that did this to her is a whole family/gang of criminals
    1 they were scared rhey were going to be caught so they decided to silence her
    1 evil will pay!!!!
    1 and no amount of $ on this earth will save that evil family
    1 from what is waiting for them in hell 🔥
    1 Jesus is King and He will make them pay
    1 In God we trust
    1 Roxana Llorens was simply an extraordinary person, a good person
    1 The kind of person you felt like being around
    1 She had a positive presence, a presence of love and kindness
    1 The pain is endless and excruciating. It is like living in a horror movie
    1 Breathing the same air as the perpetrator of the crime disgusts me
    1 Makes me nauseous
    1 And I know feeling this way only hurts me
    1 and ask God to give us strength to continue to live and go through this
    1 I refuse to give him the power to control my feelings and my mind
    1 God is in control
    1 Princess, we will love you forever
    1 Five years and it feels as if it just happened
    1 Dios tiene el control
    1 Cuanta violencia y cuanta maldad con ustedes dos. Hubiera dado mi vida por ti
    1 Sin pensarlo porque me demostraste infinidades de veces tu calidad humana y tu bondad infinita
    1 Eras de corazón puro y noble, y tenías una paciencia envidiable
    1 All the kids miss you so so much …
    1 You will not see them graduate from college…
    1 You will not be at their weddings
    1 You will not be able to take your granddaughters to school their first day
    1 You smelled so good all the time.
    1 You have the best and most sincere hugs
    1 Criar a una hija con tanto amor para que luego acaben con su vida de esta forma
    1 Como si la vida no tuviera valor, con una frialdad diabólica
    1 Con tanta crueldad
    1 No hay palabras para describir el dolor
    1 No hay manera de sobrevivir sabiendo que sufriste tanto
    1 Que sentiste tanto miedo
    1 Que te provocaron tanto dolor
    1 Pobre criatura
    1 Lo siento tanto, tanto, tanto
    1 This is mentally draining, physically exhausting, a takes a huge toll on our health
    1 What a horrendous double homicide
    1 Cold-blooded
    1 We are in shock
    1 My princess, our princess, my best friend
    1 La mejor hija, la mejor madre, la mejor hermana, la mejor tía, la mejor amiga…
    1 No nacerá otra como tú y te tuvimos y te arrancaron de nosotros…
    1 Que quitaron la oportunidad de sonreír, y de hacer sonreír
    1 Cariñosa, amable, afable, dulce, paciente, generosa
    1 Tenías tantas buenas cualidades que te adornaban
    1 Linda por dentro y por fuera
    1 Beautiful woman
    1 We feel completely lost without you
    1 What they did to the two of you was monstruoso y perverso
    1 Another long day without my Titi
    1 You taught us all how to read and do math
    2 and we looked forward to those lessons because you made it fun
    2 and were so sweet that it did not feel like we were studying
    2 We will not be able to see you ever, ever again
    1 TODAY THE COURTS DECLARED MONSTER WHO DID THIS GUILTY OF FIRST DEGREE MURDER ON TWO COUNTS
    1 RIP Roxy
    1 No words can describe the pain and sorrow we are experiencing
    1 Day after day, day after day….it is so unbearable
    1 Not a minute of the day that We do not think of you
    1 We need you…we miss you…
    1 Those who have not lost a family member to gun violence, do not know what pain is
    1 Thinking of the pain you felt when you were being shot is just too much for my brain to handle
    1 RIP our Rosita, our flower whose life was cut short
    2 Not a minute of my life goes by that I do not miss you
    2 We have a hole in our hearts
    2 not a day goes by i dont think about you my sunshine
    3 i love you Mami ❤️
