On July 20th, our brother Avaristo Alvarez, Jr. passed away.  Two weeks later on August 3rd, our father, Avaristo Alvarez, Sr. passed away.  Two weeks after our father, on August 18th, our mother, Maria Victoria Alvarez passed away as well.  Our brother’s funeral was handled lovingly by his wife and family, but we are currently putting together a double funeral for our parents who will be laid to rest together.  This is a financial strain on our family as we did not expect to have to lay so many of our loved ones to rest so close together.  We are asking for donations to help with these funeral expenses.  Any amount is appreciated and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
