Where do i even start, I’ve known Omar my whole life and he’s always been a great friend. I remember when i went over to his house often so we can play, we would be running around having the time of our lives and our parents would grab our attention because we were being too loud or they were scared we would get hurt. I have so many memories with Omar, he was a great person, friend, son, and all of the above. He was always so respectful and kind to others, always had a smile on his face and I don’t think there was ever a dull moment with him. He was like a cousin to me although we didn’t really talk much as before i always considered him family, i talked to him when i saw him in the hallways and just said “hey omar” or i would ask him how his family was how Onesimo and his mom was and what were his plans. I remember he would always tell me he's doing great in school and wants to play football and I always told him that thats a great goal and that he will be able to accomplish them because i knew what he was capable of. The only thing i regret is not telling him how much he meant to me, i think and hope he knew that i loved him very much, growing up with him helped me so much because he always knew what was right and what we could do and couldn’t do. He would always take care of me when i was at his house, when we would play in his backyard with his dogs, one was names bruno i think, or when we would go to the very back where his dad has his horse. I remember he would always look out for me when we were playing, he would check up on me if i needed any water or food or if i was doing ok. There are no words i can use to console the family in the right way because i don't even know what to say, we’ve lost a great friend, student, son, grandson, nephew.. for the family Torres i know I can’t really do much to help but be sure that i will be here with you every step of the way. Love you all and take care <3

Mi más sentido pésame para toda la familia. Siento mucho su pérdida. Omar era un estudiante ejemplar; estudioso, amable, respetuoso, siempre pendiente de poder ayudar a los demás de alguna manera. Omar era muy querido por todos sus amigos y maestros. Sin duda alguna extrañaremos su presencia y su sonrisa.
Mi corazón está triste por la pérdida de esta gran persona que era Omar y aunque no hay palabras en estos momentos que puedan aliviar su dolor, quiero que sepan que están en mis oraciones y que le pido a Dios que les dé la fortaleza y la paz que tanto necesitan en estos momentos.
Aunque Dios lo llamó a su presencia muy temprano, una cosa tenemos segura y espero encuentren un poco de consuelo en eso, que gracias a la esperanza de vida eterna que nos da nuestro Señor Jesucristo, un día podremos encontrarnos con él donde no hay más tristeza ni dolor.

Enjugará Dios toda lágrima de los ojos y ya no habrá muerte, ni habrá más llanto, ni dolor...
Apocalipsis 21:4

Fue un honor conocerlo y tenerlo en mi clase de español.

Omar I don’t know where to start. You were my best friend since second grade. You would always make my day and I loved competing with you. I remember when we were at lunch and you and Mariah argued about which one of y’all were my best friend I never said anything but I know that you knew I loved playing that paper ball game in Mrs Purcells class I always had fun with you I loved having you by my side every step of the way. When I first got glasses in second grade I was so nervous people were gonna make fun of me and no one did like a lot of people said they liked them and you were the only one to call me four eyes and I love you for that I knew from then on we would always have each other.
In fourth grade when we would do our writing papers and once we got them handed back to us we would always run up to each other and asked what we got. Some how we always got the same grade and that just made it fun to try harder to get a better score than one another. Even when we were working in a group together we’d still always compete like in science fair to see how long our kites could stay in the sky.
You were so sweet Omar that’s what I loved about you the most and you always knew how to make people laugh. I just could never be mad at you Omar you always just made me laugh and smile. When I was new to the school you would always tell me to get in the lunch line with you and you made me feel welcomed.
In fifth grade I just loved my seat where we sat because I always had you there and you always made the best out of everything. We would always go back and fourth about who was the best and I just loved competing with you. You were the most fun person to be around. Towards the end of the school year I told you I was gonna miss you a lot and you said yea I know and eww and then you said I’ll miss you too. The last time I ever saw you was at El Rancho and I just looked at you and said why are you here and you just started bursting out laughing. The last thing I ever said to you was I miss you and I’m glad I let you know.
I’m devastated to see you go but I’m glad I had you in my life. Thank you for all the memories we made I love you Omar you were my best friend. I hope you sleep peacefully and that one day we’ll see each other again.

Yo personalmente no conocia a Omar como amigo cercano. Pero siempre que lo veia en los pasios siempre estaba sonriendo. Nunca creo haberlo visto de otra manera que no fuese sonriendo. De lo que me han contado era un gran amigo y super inteligente con una personalidad contagiosa y alegre. Me recuerdo que lo vei siempre bromear con mi prima cuando antendia la escuela. Recuerdo que fue a la quinceañera de mi prima y que hablamos un rato. No recuerdo de que exactamente hablamos pero recuerdo que me encanto hablar con el. Ese dia me hizo reir y sentir mejor porque estaba ansiosa. Ese dia le hizo conpañia a mi amigo Christopher y hablaron y se rieron. Con todo mi corazon espero que dios les ayuda a la familia a encontrar consuelo en un momento tan tragico. Y padres de Omar su hijo sera recordado como un niño magnifico, intelligente, y estupendo en general y sepan que el los estara cuidando desde el cielo en los brazos de dios. Descanza en paz dulce Angel. 🕊

There are not mant words one can say to console a family grieving the loss of a loved one. But, know that there are people willing to support you in your grief, and that it is ok to grieve. I did not know Omar very well, but I do know the impact he had on his cousins, and from all the story they tel me of him, I know that Omar was a great person.
