El 22 de Agosto, perdimos a nuestro querido amigo Samy Estrada-Flores con tan solo 35 años, a causa de la violencia armada. Samy deja atrás a su madre, su amada esposa y cinco hermosos hijos que eran su mundo.

Samy llegó a Estados Unidos con un solo propósito: brindarle a su familia en Honduras una vida mejor. Trabajó incansablemente para mantenerlos. Apesar de la distancia, su corazón nunca abandonó su hogar. Nunca olvidó a su familia y los amó más que a nada, soñando siempre con el día en que pudiera regresar con ellos.

Ahora, con su fallecimiento, Samy no tiene familiares aquí en Estados Unidos que puedan hacerse cargo. Nos corresponde a nosotros, sus amigos y comunidad, honrar su memoria y cumplir su último deseo: regresarlo a Honduras para que pueda descansar en su tierra natal, rodeado de sus seres queridos.

Solicitamos su apoyo para recaudar los fondos necesarios para transportar los restos de Samy y aliviar la pesada carga de su afligida familia. Cualquier contribución, sin importar la cantidad, ayudará a traerlo a casa y brindar paz a quienes más amaba.

On August 22, we lost our beloved friend Samy Estrada-Flores at just 35 years old to a senseless act of gun violence. Samy leaves behind his mother, his loving wife, and five beautiful children who were his world.

Samy came to the United States with one purpose—to give his family in Honduras a better life. As their sole supporter, he worked tirelessly to provide for them. Though far away, his heart never left home. He never once forgot his family and loved them more than anything, dreaming always of the day he could return to them.

Now, with his passing, Samy has no relatives here in the United States to carry this burden. It falls to us, his friends and community, to honor his memory and fulfill his final wish: to return him to Honduras so he may rest in his homeland, surrounded by the people he loved most.

We are asking for your support in raising the funds needed to transport Samy’s remains and to ease the heavy burden on his grieving family. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help bring him home and provide peace to those he cherished most.
