<div>On July 13, 2025, our beloved Xavier G. Hernandez tragically lost his life during an encounter with the El Paso Police Department when he was experiencing a mental health crisis. Xavier was begging and pleading for help. Instead of help or empathy, Xavier was met with tasers, chokeholds, the crushing weight of an officer on his back, he was put face down on burning asphalt, all while in handcuffs for approximately 10 agonizing minutes. Xavier deserved the help he needed. Xavier deserves to be alive. He was only 30 years old. His sudden passing has left his family and friends shattered, creating an unimaginable void in all of our hearts.

<div>Xavier grew up in El Paso and attended Eastwood Heights Elementary, Eastwood Middle, and Eastwood High School. He was a devoted son, caring brother, loving uncle, and cherished grandson. He was also a loyal friend to many. He was quiet, gentle, and kind, with a heart that always put others first. He loved helping people, working in insurance to assist the elderly, and even taking on a second job to support himself and his family.


</div>

</div>


<div>Xavier lived life with joy and curiosity. He had a fascination with fast cars, loved animals, especially dogs, and leaves behind his beloved chihuahua Waffles, waiting for him to come home. He was passionate about anime and Dragon Ball Z, a big soccer fan, and he loved cheering on his favorite teams. Above all, Xavier loved his family deeply. They were his world. His goofy smile, warm spirit, and infectious laughter will forever be missed.

</div>


<div>This tragedy should never have happened. Xavier’s life mattered. Our family is committed to seeking answers and justice for him so that no other family experiences this pain. While we fight for accountability, we face the overwhelming burden of funeral expenses and the financial strain that follows such a sudden loss.
