As we come together to celebrate the life of our dear Paco Ojeda, we want this gathering to be as full of heart, color, and connection as he was. Paco gave so much of himself to Puerto Vallarta — championing local businesses, uplifting artists, supporting nonprofits, and building a community that he truly loved.

To make this Celebration of Life possible, we’re asking for a little help from those who wish to contribute. Our goal is to raise 18,000 pesos to cover the rental of audio/visual equipment and the live streaming. Your support will help us create a beautiful space where we can come together to remember, laugh, cry, and honor Paco’s many contributions to our community.

Any funds raised beyond the cost of the Celebration of Life will be donated to the Puerto Vallarta Garden Club, with a goal of 40,000 pesos to plant a tree in Paco’s honor in the Isla Cuale Park, with a memorial plaque placed below it — a lasting tribute in one of the places he loved very much.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us celebrate Paco with the same warmth and generosity he showed to all of us.

With gratitude,

On behalf of the organizers
