Art "Turi" Gomez

Hello, on behalf of myself, Vanessa Gomez & my brother Nicolas Gomez, we appreciate you in advance for your support. Our beloved dad, Art Gomez aka Turi, passed away on September 25th, 2023. Losing our dad so suddenly was something we were not prepared for but we thank God for the five days we had to say our goodbyes. If you're reading this, I hope it is with a smile because he was such a character, he told the best jokes, he was funny and witty and so smart. He did the best Beetlejuice impression and loved to play his heart out to his congas (that was his happy place). We're going to miss our dad tremendously because like his favorite band Santana- he is our "Earth's Cry, Heaven's Smile".

During this difficult time as my family and I wait for a court judgement to make his final arrangements, we are praying for the best and need to be prepared for any outcome. We sincerely ask for any assistance to organize a meaningful memorial and to offset the financial costs of court fees to obtain his remains while trying to do my best to honor my dad the way he deserves but most of all because he was loved beyond words! It's been with such a heavy heart to have to go through this legal battle when we should be gathering and remembering the stories, laughter and smiles he left. We are so very grateful for every donation during this difficult time (If you would prefer to venmo me privately you may find me @fun3ssa).
