Support My Uncle’s Memorial & Family

My name is Ezequiel, and I am heartbroken to share that my uncle — who was like a father figure to me growing up — has passed away after a sudden and aggressive battle with cancer. The symptoms appeared out of nowhere, and within weeks, his health declined so quickly that we barely had time to process what was happening.

I did everything I could to get to Seattle to see him one last time, but despite waking up at 5 a.m. to travel, multiple flight delays and complications meant I wasn’t able to say goodbye in person. That pain will always stay with me, but now my focus is on honoring him properly and helping the family he left behind.

He leaves behind loved ones who are devastated, including his newborn child, who will grow up hearing stories of the kind and loving man their father was. The costs of arranging memorial services and providing support during this difficult time are overwhelming.

This fundraiser is to help cover:

Memorial and funeral expenses

Support for his immediate family as they navigate this painful transition

Ensuring his newborn has the care and resources they need in these early days

Any contribution, no matter the size, will help lighten the heavy burden on his family. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this campaign so others may see it.

My uncle was a guiding light in my life, and I want to make sure his memory is honored with the dignity he deserves. Thank you for helping us through this heartbreaking time.
