It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we share the tragic news of the passing of our dad, Alfredo Estrada. On January 19th, my family and I received a phone call that no family would ever want to receive. Our dad died from a sudden massive heart attack while working.

Our family is devasted. We never in a million years would have expected to have lost him so soon. He had so many plans for the future, and he often talked about one day making it to our youngest brother's 18th birthday. Alfredo was the most hardworking, kind person that any of us knew. Everyone who knew him always said he was a good man - one who never said no and was always happy to help. He was the backbone of our family. I feel blessed to have spent almost 23 years of my life with such a wonderful father, and am heartbroken to have lost him so suddenly.

We want to give our dad the memorial he deserves, honor his memory, and say our last goodbyes. We're currently asking for donations to help cover the cost of his funeral. Any remaining funds will help to support his wife (our mom) and youngest child (our little brother), Cristopher Estrada, who is 11 years old. We will never forget Alfredo and the impact he had on those around him.

Words can't describe how suddenly his passing has affected all of us, especially his children and family.

Thank you for taking the time to read and share.

Con profunda tristeza y pesar en el corazón compartimos la trágica noticia del fallecimiento de nuestro padre, Alfredo Estrada. El 19 de enero, mi familia y yo recibimos una llamada que ninguna familia quisiera recibir. Nuestro padre murió de un repentino infarto masivo mientras trabajaba.

Nuestra familia está destrozada. Nunca esperábamos perderlo tan pronto. Tenía tantos planes para el futuro, y hablaba de que algún día llegaría al cumpleaños 18 de nuestro hermano menor. Alfredo era la persona más trabajadora y amable que conocíamos. Todos los que lo conocieron siempre dijeron que era un buen hombre, uno que nunca decía que no y que siempre estaba dispuesto a ayudar. El nunca quedaba mal con nadien. Me siento bendecida por haber pasado casi 23 años de mi vida con un padre tan maravilloso y estoy desconsolada por haberlo perdido tan de repente.

Queremos darle a nuestro papá el memorial que se merece, honrar su memoria y despedirnos por última vez. Actualmente estamos solicitando donaciones para ayudar a cubrir el costo de su funeral. Los fondos restantes ayudarán a mantener a su esposa (nuestra madre) y su hijo (nuestro hermano menor), Cristopher, que tiene 11 años. Nunca olvidaremos a Alfredo y el impacto que tuvo en quienes lo conocían.

Las palabras no pueden describir cuanto su fallecimiento nos ha afectado a todos, especialmente a sus hijos y familia.

Gracias por tomarse su tiempo para leer y compartir.
