Carlos Alfredo Lorente Memorial Service

In memory of my beloved father, who faced the relentless challenge of battling ALS with unwavering strength until his passing on Monday morning, March 4, 2024. His journey was marked by resilience and an indomitable spirit that inspired all who knew him.

ALS stands for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, a neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. It leads to the loss of voluntary muscle control, impacting activities like walking, talking, and eventually, breathing. As the motor neurons degenerate, muscles weaken. Though the exact cause is unknown, it's a serious condition with no cure, requiring supportive care to manage symptoms.

As we navigate this profound loss, we are reaching out for your support in creating a memorial that truly reflects the remarkable life he lived. Your generous contributions will help us honor his legacy in a meaningful way, allowing friends and family to come together to celebrate the beautiful moments he shared with us.

Beyond commemorating his life, we also want to shed light on the devastating impact of ALS. By raising awareness and contributing to ALS research, we aim to support those currently battling with the disease and work toward a future where no one has to endure its hardships.

Your kindness, generosity, and contribution during this challenging time will not only assist in creating a fitting tribute to my dad, but will also serve as a beacon of hope for others affected by ALS.

Thank you for being a meaningful part of this endeavor, and for helping us carry forward the love and strength that defined his life.

We love and miss you so incredibly much dad
