It is with a heavy heart that I type this out…

Today, July 16th 2021, we mourn the loss of three loved ones. Maria Fernanda Suarez (41) and her two beloved sons, Nicolas Mateo Gavilanes (20) and Juan Francisco Orbe (13), have passed away in a horrific car accident. The middle brother, Samir Gavilanes (18), is currently in ICU and we pray that his body can sustain the injuries.

Fernanda loved her three sons more than anything in the world. Those who knew her know that she has a heart of gold. Nicolas was in his 2nd year of medical school and had big aspirations in life to help others once he became a doctor. Juan was still growing up and loved life so much; he enjoyed riding his bike, sports and cars.

We are asking for any help possible in pooling together funds for medical expenses as well as funeral expenses. Our family would love nothing more than for them to be buried next to one another so they can rest peacefully together.

Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers at this time.
