So today Laura and I went to a funeral of someone I've never personally met but someone's life we both could relate to, Joe Guillen II. For myself, I know how it feels to lose someone close to you, and for Laura she could really relate to the passing of Mr. Guillen. From what we know, Mr. Guillen passed away due to cancer in which that is the same terminal illness Laura's father is suffering from.
The world is small place, because Mr. Guillen's daughter, Natalie, is Laura's hair stylist who is about the same age as Laura. We were able to hear Natalie's tribute to her father in front of the entire church. Everyone had kind words to describe Mr. Guillen, it seems as he was really genuine person who touched many lives.
Unfortunately, Laura and I could not stay throughout the entire funeral service, but it was beautiful and touching. This post is dedicated to Mr. Guillen, people said he loved this song and now I do too...
