Celebrating Roy's Impactful Life Together

In Memory of Roy Tello Jr.

We are heartbroken to share the news of the passing of our beloved Roy, who many knew as Jr., who left us on January 4, 2025. Roy was a loving, humorous, and kind person who wore his heart on his sleeve. He had a great love for his wife, his boys, his family, and his friends. His joy came from serving others as a youth minister, sports coach, and psychiatric nurse technician. Roy's shining spirit drew many people to him. His smile was warm and welcoming, and his tears were genuine and felt. He was the real deal. Many of us remember those times of shared laughter, joy, and tears.

As we navigate this difficult time, we want to give Roy the memorial he deserves so we can pay our respects and say our last goodbyes. Unfortunately, the financial burden of these arrangements is overwhelming. Roy had not worked for quite some time as he was managing end-stage renal failure. Your contributions will help his wife and his family through the financial burden.

We are humbly reaching out to our friends, family, and community for support in raising funds to cover the cost of:

Funeral service and cremation expenses

Memorial service arrangements for Colorado and California.

Any additional costs related to honoring Roy's memory

Our goal is to raise $6,000, and every donation, no matter the size, will make a difference. If you are unable to contribute financially, we deeply appreciate your prayers, thoughts, and shares of this campaign to help us reach others who may be able to assist.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with us during this difficult time. Together, we can ensure Roy's life is celebrated and remembered in the way he truly deserves.

With gratitude,

Jocelyn Tello and Jonathan Tello
