Kristen, words cannot express how sad my heart is for you and your family. As has been expressed by so many others, Javier possessed a caring spirit and genuine love for the people in his life. Saying he will be missed doesn't come close to expressing the immense grief I feel. God bless you Chris H

Some things just have a very hard time registering. This is one of those times. Jav had so many friends, so I will go under the class of Mortgage. So many stories I would not know where to begin. I can proudly say I was one who for the past 15 or so years always got my monthly evening call from Jav. Last month it was his Ryne Sandberg story. I will miss Jav and my monthly call. My heart bleeds , but I have also found myself smiling all day. Jav always made me smile. Peace
