Thank you Perez for bring attention to this cause. I am actually walking for this cause in September in memory of my brother. I had just graduated out of high school when my brother killed himself back in 2001. Very unexpected and changed my family. Its said that every 16 minutes someone commits suicide. So every 17 minutes there are friends and family left to cope with a sudden loss.
For the ignorant people out there... Your rude comments just show that you have never gone through such a tragedy... Yes suicide is seen as a selfish act but who are you to judge other peoples actions. I was angry the first two years following my brothers suicide because I felt the same way. He left two kids behind as well as his entire family and he didn't think about that in his moment of weakness. Regardless no one should be so rude. You are mocking someones family or friend. One day the tables will turn and you will be forced to see what we have to cope with as family and friends of someone that committed suicide.
Do you even realize that several of these people are Military Veterans??? Have some respect!!!
Abe Quintanilla is pathetic. I too am a Corpus native and remember when Selena died. Her father has tried to get soooooo many things named after her. The statue is a joke and I cringe seeing it everytime I go back home. She was that typical singer that gets know AFTER they've died. They tried to name a school after her that she DROPPED OUT OF!!!! They were going to name a street after her. Her voice was beautiful but I wasn't a fan of her image. Wearing bedazzeled bras on stage??? My mother had the "pleasure" of working with her uncle who was a total douche and used to yell "YOU KNOW WHO MY FAMILY IS!!!?!?" Who cares!!! I am glad the shop closed. I never saw anyone shop there so in a way it was a waste of space. I think I went in there ONCE and you could tell that no one was taking care of it. Her entire family has ridden her coattail the entire time and I am glad that now its time for them to maybe create their OWN coattail and actually let her rest. Its not right for families to take advantage of their dead family members like they have. I won't even start on the JOE JACKSON BS!!!!!
