Querida familia y amigos,

Les comparto con mucho dolor que mi papa falleció el sábado 17 de febrero. Mi papa se nos fue muy joven, de solo 57 años. Su muerte fue inesperada y ahora les pedimos su ayuda para poder preparar sus servicios.

Raul Valdez deja su esposa y a sus 6 hijos. Es una gran pérdida para todos nosotros. Mi papa fue un gran guerrero toda su vida y hizo todo con amor y alegría. Nos llenaba de gozo con su presencia, canciones, chistes y todo el amor que nos dio a cada uno de nosotros. Impacto nuestras vidas con un gran amor como padre, esposo, hijo, hermano, y amigo.

Creemos con toda fe que ahora está en el cielo con su padre y sus familiares que se nos adelantaron. Lo imaginamos feliz y cantando al Señor.

Si, esta es la decisión de mi Padre: toda persona que al contemplar al Hijo crea en él, tendrá vida eterna, y yo lo resucitare en el último día. ~Juan 6:40

Les pedimos su apoyo para unirnos en celebración de la vida de un gran hombre y también para apoyar a su esposa y sus dos hijos menores que todavía dependían de el para vivir.

Con un agradecimiento infinito pedimos a Dios que les multiplique su ayuda.

Dear Friends and Family,

With great regret I share with you the news that my father passed away on Saturday, February 17, 2024. It was very unexpected for our family, and we are asking all of you for your support during this difficult time as we make the preparations for his funeral.

Raul Valdez is survived by his wife and 6 children. This is a great loss for his entire family and his friends. My father was a warrior his entire life, doing everything with love and joy for his family and friends. He would fill every room with his presence, singing, jokes, and joy for life. We find peace in knowing that he is now in the presence of the Lord and reunited with his father and relatives that went before him.

For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. ~John 6:40

We ask for your help now to be able to come together in celebration of the life of a very loved husband, father, son, brother, and friend. We also are asking for support for his wife and his two younger children who depended on him fully.

We are eternally grateful for your help and pray that the Lord will multiply the blessings in your life for any support that you are able to provide to our family today.
