Alex Mejia’s Funeral Costs

Donation protected

On September 11, 2020, at approximately 1:00 am, our family member Alexander, was working as a security guard at a nightclub in Falls Church, VA. He was approached by a man with a knife and he assured the guy he was not able to enter in the building with it. The man got upset and returned to his car who then grabbed his gun and came back just to shoot my cousin four times at his head. Sadly, Alex was pronounced dead. It’s so sad how an innocent life full of love and excitement was taken away from us with no such purpose. He was such a nice loving person with such a huge heart. Was a father of a young boy and was going to be a dad to a precious baby girl. But now they have lost the most important person in their life, their father. Now his mother who lives in El Salvador and his expecting wife are tremendously devastated and hopeless. We ask if you can please help my family towards this tragic moment that we are going through. It’s something so unexpected. We are asking for your help to cover his funeral costs. All expenses will go towards his funeral costs and to deliver his body to his mother in El Salvador. Anything will help. In advance from the Castro & Mejia family we thank you for you support. May God bless you all. 

En Septiembre, 11 del 2020, a aproximadamente a la 1:00 de la madrugada, nuestra amado primo/hermano Alexander Mejía, estaba en su horario de trabajo como guardia de seguridad en una discoteca en Falls Church, VA. Mientras trabajaba un hombre quería entrar con una navaja y Alex le aseguró que con ese objetivo no podía entrar. Luego el hombre tan furioso regresa a su carro y regresa con una pistola en la mano y apuntando a Alex le dispara con cuatro balazos en su cabeza. Lamentablemente nuestro querido hermano falleció en ese momento. Una alma tan querido y amado por todos sus familiares y amistades. Nos quitaron a nuestro primo/hermano quien deja un hijo y estaba esperando ansiosamente a su hija que estar por nacer. Tristemente por esta tragedia tan horrible nos queda pedirles su apoyo y su ayuda para poder cubrir sus gastos funerales. No es fácil perder un ser querido y más en una forma tan cruel sin razón ninguno. Cualquier ayuda es muy valioso para su familia en estos momentos tan difícil. Toda donación será para cubrir los gastos funeral y para poder mandar su cuerpo a su madre que lo espera tristemente en El Salvador. Queremos agradecerles antes de tiempo por su apoyo y colaboración para nuestro querido Alexander. Que Dios les bendiga a todos y consuele a su Madre y su esposa que está embarazada. Nuestra familia, Castro y Mejía les agradecemos su ayuda en estos momentos tan difíciles para nosotros. Gracias!
