Xavier was a graduate of Saint Raphael Academy and George Mason University and later became a successful Cyber Security specialist. He enjoyed cooking, music, travel, sports and above all else spending time with family and friends. Xavier was a charismatic being, dedicated father, loyal family member and revered friend. Throughout his time on earth he touched and influenced so many with his selfless acts, optimistic ideals, and
genuine heart.

Xavier was intentional with his time, never forgetting to live life to the fullest and encourage those around him to do the same. He did not just appreciate life, he enjoyed every moment. Words cannot express how much he will be missed. Until we meet again Brother, Son, Father, Love.

Please take a moment to read the poem below. It was one of Xavier’s favorites that offers a message we believe he would want us all to embrace. Appreciate life and all of its offerings despite the ups and downs.

Desiderata by Max Ehrmann:
Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible without surrender,
Be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly, and listen to others -
Even the dull and ignorant, they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons - they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter,
For always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career -
However humble, it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs,
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is.
Many persons strive for high ideals,
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself.
Especially do not feign affection, neither be cynical about love.
For in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,
It is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the council of the years,
Gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune,
But do not distress yourself with imaginings -
Many fears are borne of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe.
No less than the trees and the stars, you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
No doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life,
Keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be careful. Strive to be happy
