It is with extreme sadness that we announce the passing of Rolando Villanueva a.k.a UPE.

Upe was a special person to all who knew him. He made sure to put a smile on everyone’s face. He always put others before himself.

For those of you that knew him, you knew that he was a fighter. Upe fought till the very end — so much so, that none of us thought it was the end just yet. Unfortunately, Upe passed away recently on Feb 12, 2022. He was 70 years old.

 

He touched the lives of so many and it’s our turn to give back to his family in their time of need. We are raising money to cover the costs of the funeral and memorial services and during this difficult time we are reaching out to the community for help.

 

So you know exactly where your donation will be used, we are planning a modest but proper ceremony. Every little bit helps. You will see an itemized list of our intended spending below.
