The girlfriend of a Queens teenager found murdered in a park recalled Saturday the final text messages they exchanged the night he vanished.
Andy Peralta, 17, messaged Daylin Plaza to say he was headed to Flushing to do cleaning work.
“He texted me saying he was going to Main Street and he never texted me back after nine,” Plaza, 17, said outside her beau’s wake held at Iglesia Pentecostal Unida Hispana on 97th St.
“That’s the last time we spoke.”

Peralta left his Corona home against his parents’ wishes about 6:45 p.m. Monday.
His body was discovered in a marshy section of Kissena Park about noon Tuesday.
He was found with a wound to his head and his pants pulled down his legs.

The medical examiner ruled that Peralta died of asphyxiation.
Peralta’s parents said they were told that some of his fellow students at Newtown High School had threatened to kill him.
But Plaza said she never heard anything about the threats. “I wish he would’ve told me,” she said.
