As we all embrace the reality of the sudden departure from this life of Eric M. Tellez Jr. on Dec. 31, 2019. Let us all remember who he was. Eric M. Tellez Jr. was a family man. His family was his world and he protected his family to the very end. Eric was a lover of art, which he displayed proudly in his drawings and tattooing. He loved his dogs and were considered his children. His smile would light up the room and his compassion touched everyone he met. Eric always wanted to make people laugh, so he would sometimes display his dance moves and dance battle with his brother Stevie. He was a provider for his wife Sabrina and did whatever he needed to do to provide and unconditionally love her. He was like a father figure to his sister Leandra, always knowing what was best for her and his nieces. Everyone that ever knew Eric will forever be changed with his passing, but his presence will always be with us. He is at rest now, in the mighty hands of God, Heaven is a better place with him in it.

Tellez Sr., his mother Faith Davis, His grandparents Richard Tellez Sr. and Yolanda Tellez, his Uncle Richard Tellez Jr. (Jennifer Tellez), his Mom/Aunt Athena Tellez, his Cool Aunt Melanie Tellez.
