My condolences and prayers to the entire Garza Family. So glad Joel introduced me to you all. Such great people all having the same spirit.

Joel was such a great and funny person. He came at a time I really need a friend. I hope and pray that all goes well and I am really sorry I was not there to mourn for my friend. Will miss him but we know we will see him again. Love and peace to the Garza Family.

My sincerest condolences to Joel's family.

I'm going to miss you a lot, my friend. I knew we would become great friends from the first time we met. Thank you for the fishing lessons and for teaching me how to BBQ the right way. I promise I will continue to take Chloe fishing for you because of you; she loves fishing. I wish we had more time together because I always enjoyed your company. You were full of life and always had a smile. You were always there for my family, and I thank you so much. Till we meet again, I'll miss you.

Tio Jr, i will miss our time out hunting. As everyone can tell you ALWAYS had more than enough gear. You weren’t missing a thing, ever. My dad always said when we go hunting that we go hoping for a deer but we really go for the times at the campsite. I loved spending time with you there and seeing you throw down on the grill. If we got a deer that was just a cherry on top. You will be missed by a lot of people. I love you tio
