Laurie and family, my prayers are with you. I know the heartbreak you are going through.

Cristian Andres Puccio-
There aren’t words in any language that could illustrate or convey the deep grief and sorrow that sits in my core. I remember the very first day I met you, and every day after that we worked together as a team to achieve goals and successes that had never been seen before. You were more than a coworker, you were my best friend. There are so many things left unsaid, that reside in my heart and soul and will forever remain there. Every inside joke, every life that you touched and brought to me to help and save… You are my best friend. To say I am devastated and completely broken is the most understated words to ever leave my lips. You taught me to find the humor in every situation, no matter who was around, or what the situation was. You taught me to always laugh, and appreciate every moment, treasuring each moment spent as if it is the last one. You taught me resilience to negativity, and made me laugh harder than I’ve ever laughed in my life. You taught me to love and have patience no matter the stresses or circumstances. There is an aching void in my chest that will never be filled. You were right, I will never meet another human being like you. Throughout these past few days, I seem to find traces of you in every area of life. You are unforgettable. I keep waiting to wake up and see that this is all a bad dream, but the void is still there. I will spend every day for the rest of my life, leading by your example. I will love hard, make others laugh, find the beauty and humor in every situation, and do what I can to leave an impact on the world around us. I swear to you I will leave a legacy that makes you proud. I love you best friend. You left an impact on others, and changed my life as well. I’ll never forget going through the fire escape and climbing the exit to explore the roof at work. Ill never forget the copious amounts of chicken we ate from the food court, or you leaving steaks, ACTUAL STEAKS, on my desk. Or teaching Zach’s kid “oh billy!” From Jim Carrey. You were the sunshine in every room. “Golden retriever,” “crow,” “put your dimples away,” “what theeee, “oh billy!” “Ohmigawd” “CHEEZE it’s!” “Cursive king” “spelling champion”
Every day I will do what I can to leave the world a better place than where I found it, and to always make people laugh. Your larger than life personality will be missed.
Rest easy, not goodbye, but see you later, until we link on the next dimensional realm.

Our prayers hold you close. We know the heart break, the silence and the hole in your life that will be there always. He is a precious soul. By the grace of God he is free now. We love you. Patti and Frank

I was texting with you that same day never realizing I wouldn’t see or talk to you again. Our lives will not be the same without you. You never let on the internal struggle you were going through, had we known maybe we could have help you through it. You will be missed by everyone’s life you touched.
