Dear Mr. & Mrs. Garcia:

 My name is Gabriel Vigil. Words cannot erase the pain and suffering your 
family is feeling right now. Nor can I express my great sorrow at the loss of your son and my friend Ben. I just wanted to tell you what an impact Ben made in my life. I met Ben about 4 years ago, and from the moment I met him I knew he was different. Ben welcomed, everyone and it was impossible not to smile whenever I was hanging out with him. He always made me laugh with one liners. There is so much I want to say about Ben, that I just cannot express right now. It is hard for me to grasp the fact that I will never see my friend again. 

I will miss him greatly as will everyone. But I can say this, my life has 
been made richer having known Ben. He was a great guy. God Bless You All.

Sincerely,
Gabriel Vigil
