It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of our dear uncle, Jimmy Aviles whose gentle spirit and loving heart touched everyone around him. He was the kind of person who made you feel seen, loved, and welcomed; someone who could brighten even the heaviest days with his warmth, humor, and kindness. He was a loving father, son, brother, uncle, partner and friend. His loss leaves a space in our family that can never be filled.

As we come together to honor his life, we want to give him the beautiful and meaningful farewell he truly deserves. We’ve created this GoFundMe for those who feel moved to contribute to his funeral and memorial arrangements, medical bills/expenses and to help us celebrate the love, joy, and light he brought into the world.

Your support, whether through donating, sharing, or simply holding our family in your thoughts, means more than we can express.

Thank you for surrounding us with kindness as we remember and honor a man we loved so deeply.
