It was because of Uncle Jello how I got the nickname "Shaeree". He also taught me how to drive my first car which was a stick shift. You are truly missed. Love you forever.

Jello was more than a brother-in law to me, he was more like a brother,we were close like sister and brother,he even had a nick name for me,my kids loved him and looked up to him like a father,especially Tayon the youngest.

Uncle Jello came into my life at an early age and was more of a father figure than an uncle. He applauded me when I was right and scolded me when I was wrong. He is the reason I am the man I am today. I enjoyed every moment we spent and will see him again one day. Uncle J was truly "The best that there ever was."
