To Hector. I love you so much. Blood didn't make us brothers, but that didn't matter. You were my brother in my heart. We grew up together, and motivated me to be the man I am today. I've known you since I was 5...I do not remember any part of my life without you in it. Playing outside and growing up together is something I will always cherish. The love I have for you is one that cannot be described. Its a love that I will always have, for life. I loved being around you. You are one of the greatest, kindest, and loving people I have ever met. Everyone who knew me, knew about you. I would talk about you constantly. To have to do this without you by my side is going to be so hard. But I know you'll be there. I love you brother, until I see you again. -Efrain

Matt and Efrain's friendship first started as co-supervisors at Six Flags. And even though they were co-sups for a year, and leads in the same area before that, their friendship grew rapidly after the fact. Especially because Efrain did not remember him and Matt were in the same area beforehand. (Sorry Matt) After becoming close friends, Matt and Efrain were roommates for over a year, and share many memories while living together. Whether that was playing videogames, singing karaoke, watching musicals, or watching competitive marble racing. Yes, marbles. Matt is an amazing friend, and baker too!

Joey and Efrain met at Six Flags in 2015. Their friendship grew rapidly, and their bond was quickly established with their mutual love of numerous movies and TV shows. Half their dialogue are quotes, and have many, many personal inside jokes. Their nicknames to each other are "sistah". The reasoning? They were both supervisors at Six Flags and were in "sister" areas. It is often stated in a very high pitched manner.

Adrian and Efrain met at Six Flags in 2013, making Adrian one of Efrain's longest friends. Early in their friendship, they would hang out often. They always try to hang out, more often than not at the local Dave and Busters where they enjoy a beer or two while playing billiards. Neither are very good, but it is good company. Even though they might not see each other as often as they would like, every time they do, it feels like no time has passed.
