Annmarie Fitzgerald Justin, Beth, and Maeve, Words can't even express the sadness, but know I think and pray for you often. I wish I could have known the wonderful young man he grew into. I only remember the sweet boy running around his auntie Lisa's wedding, of which I had a few photos. Our hearts are with you. Annmarie

Benoit Bouchet We will always remember when sweet Ezra dressed up as Professor Bumblesnore (a character he invented) and made magic at Camille's 7th birthday party. All the little ones looked up to him adoringly, and he was just spectacular.

Obituary Ezra Jude Trager-Tarrant, an Albuquerque High School junior with a gift for music and devotion to friends and his tight-knit family, died Wednesday at University of New Mexico Hospital, devastating his loved ones.

What a beautiful boy, as you said, Beth - and what a sparkling little sister we see in these photos, too. My heart aches for all of you right now. Ezra's soul and the love he shared will shine foreve...

My heart goes out to you. Ezra sounds like a very special person. As one of Beth's patient's and staff at UNM OB/GYN, she would share stories about Ezra as a baby that were very helpful and reassuring to me as a new mom. Hugs to your family.

Julie Salvador The Ezra I got to know was the 12-year old boy that was part of the Griffin, Pasqual, Jacob crew, involving a couple sleepovers, some trick or treating years, game days on weekends at our house, few birthday parties, and school field trip I chaperoned to the Nature Center (pics uploaded). And during all these events, I got to know Ezra through his laugh. He had the BEST laugh. He was always kind and sweet natured, always good -- with that awesome laugh that made me think he knows something I don't. He gets it. And it's hilarious.

We just can't believe that Ezra is no longer in this world. Our hearts go out to your family. We just saw Ezra at a midwife gathering in January. Every time we saw him he was getting taller and maturing, and he always had that sweet smile and charming way about him. He was a good kid. We are so sorry for this loss. We continue to send our love and ...

Dearest Beth, I am so sorry your precious son passed. My sister, Diane, sent the obituary to me after Sandy posted it. You probably don’t remember me; I am Bernie Peer’s oldest daughter, Debbie. I remember you coming to my mom’s house when you were little. In fact, I have my mom’s albums and I’m sure there’s a picture of you sitting on their firepl...

Dear Justin, Beth and Maeve, Although we have not seen each other in so long I am thinking of you often and celebrating Ezra’s life today, on his birthday.
