Help family Lico Cisneros,was killed Christmas Eve

Donation protected
Hi Everyone,

My name is Linda Hammack, I am Lico-Federico Cisneros's stepdaughter, or as he would say- his daughter. He wouldn't have wanted me to say step. I loved Lico like a real father.

I am posting this is Go Fund Me account to help support the family and cover financial costs of Federico 'Lico' Cisneros.
I have never made a Go Fund Me before so I really hope this works well, and I had a hard time choosing just one photo so I created a collage so that people everywhere could see the happy and loving family man he was. 

I know we are in the middle of the holidays and this is a sad thing to have to hear about and deal with, but for some the holidays have had to be post-poned or just aren't able to happen at all anymore.

*One of the key issues right now is that my mothers vehicle due to being an active crime scene is not even available for use and when she does finally get it back it will have bullet holes and blood in it, and we do not know exactly what the insurance will cover- it was also their only vehicle. Her purse is in the car as well, along with her wallet and personal things that she cannot gain access to. And with Lico gone, the threat of losing their home in the next few months is very real, as he worked the most to uphold the bills and their home.

If you would like to contribute in another way due to concerns about Go Fund Me taking a percentage of the amount they would get, paypal, zelle, and other options are available, please feel free to contact me if you would rather do something like this.

If you are not able to contribute, please do not be saddened, just sharing this so that word gets around would make a big difference- I promise.

To those of you who knew and loved Lico, I am so sorry. I am so sorry you had to find out the way you did, I am so sorry you had to go through Christmas and these holidays like this. And what's more I am so sorry you are having to read this now. We are all tremendously devastated, and I would give almost anything to change it.

To those of you who did not know Lico, he was a loving father and a wonderful grandfather to not only his biological grandkids- but to mine as well. He loved all of his children and grandchildren fiercely and was very protective over each of us.
He was probably one of the most giving people I've ever met and that is probably why my mother loves him so much. He wasn't perfect, nobody is, but he strived to be as great as he could be and worked on who he was every day. He loved to laugh and to make other people laugh, just making somebody smile made his day.

***The following is the story of what happened to Lico that sad morning, if you are a family member or friend and do not wish to have to reread this, look for the next ***as it will indicate when that portion of this is over.***

Federico 'Lico' Cisneros was murdered on Tuesday morning, Christmas Eve. While we were all doing last minute shopping, wrapping presents, or visiting with family for the holidays- he was on his way to get something very important. He was getting dog tags to honor his late son who was in the Army, who has died just a few years ago, specially made for his three remaining sons. But he never made it there, he got donuts for his family at home- my mother, 2 little brothers, and grandpa, but wasn't able to pick the dog tags up or even have them made.

He was shot three times through the car door somewhere near highway 99 and gosling in spring/houston, Texas and had to drive like that to a nearby gas station where he was able to make his last call to 911. They got there as fast as they could and even life flighted him to the nearest hospital but he was pronounced dead when they arrived.

They haven't been able to find the person who did this to him and have no leads. They are thinking that it might have been road rage, but only Lico and the person who did this know exactly what happened that Christmas eve morning.

This was supposed to be the best time of the year. This was supposed to be the time of the year when people come together and people are giving and loving and do everything they can to help each other- even if they are strangers. And I know there are people like that out there, but he didn't get to see that this year.

I know that there are good people out there, I know there are selfless and giving people out there and I know Lico knew it too. I also knew he was one of those people and deserved better than this. His family deserves better than this.

Lico had 4 wonderful and intelligent sons, one was lost a few years ago after serving in the Army and another is currently in the Army. He also had 2 more sons (that he called his sons- are his adopted) who are only 14 years old with my mother and have just started high school. Lico also had 6 grandchildren in total, ranging from 2 years old to 8 years old.

Lico was so excited for Christmas this year and even though they didn't have much and couldn't afford to do much, my mother and him worked feverishly, often doing back-breaking labor type work where they both spent sometimes more than 12 hours working almost nonstop to provide for their family and to try to get presents for all of their loved ones for Christmas.

You see, Lico and my mother did not believe in just getting a few people gifts and leaving the others out. They wanted to give every single thing they could to make sure that for the 'most wonderful time of the year' everyone in their large family got something, even if it was just handmade.

His family, his Wife, his children, his mother, brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, grandchildren and everyone who has been affected by this did not deserve to have this man- someone we could all count on- taken away from us.

Nobody deserves this.

And I hope that our community and the people who read this agree, and that those who are able to help his family in this horrible time can help out in any way possible so that his family and friends can be given the opportunity to grieve without having to worry about the expenses of taking care of his arrangements, their family, and home where so many memories were made; that are coming up far too soon after such a terrible incident.

And as I said before, even if you are not able to help out, you just reading this and sharing it helps tremendously.

Who knows, maybe if this is shared enough times maybe we will be able to find the person who did this to him.
