Update: Thank you all for your continued support! God bless you from the bottom of our hearts. The funeral service will be held on Monday, March 31st at Weddle Funeral Service. 1777 N 3rd Ave Stayton, OR 97383. From 10 am to 8 pm.

My name is Genevieve Arenas and I am in disbelief about what I have to share right now. On March 25th, my daughter’s father, Homero Joaquin, unexpectedly passed away. This is an unimaginably devastating loss for our families. We are in complete shock and disbelief, and we are reaching out in unity to plan for this tragedy. We are collecting funds for his funeral expenses at his family’s request. Their hope is to transport his body to his hometown, Uruapan, Michoacan, Mexico, to lay him to rest.

Homero was a loving, caring, hard-working man, and he was completely devoted to his daughter and his family. He worked so hard to build his business, El Buen Taco Taqueria, to provide for his family. I never thought I would have to be writing this. I am heartbroken my daughter will live her life without her father. I don’t understand why this happened, but I know he loved his daughter so much and would never willingly leave her. Please share and if you can contribute, we appreciate anything you can help with, including your prayers. Anything helps. God bless you all.

Me llamo Genevieve Arenas y no puedo creer lo que tengo que compartir con ustedes en este momento. El 25 de Marzo, el padre de mi hija, Homero Joaquín, falleció inesperadamente. Esta es una pérdida increíblemente devastadora para nuestras familias. Estamos en estado de shock e incredulidad, pero necesitamos prepararnos para tratar con esta tragedia. Estamos recaudando fondos para los gastos funerarios a petición de su familia. Esperan poder trasladar su cuerpo a su ciudad natal, Uruapan, Michoacán, México, para su entierro.

Homero era un hombre cariñoso, atento y trabajador, y estaba completamente dedicado a su hija y a su familia. Trabajó muy duro para construir su negocio, El Buen Taco Taquería, para mantener a su familia. Nunca pensé que tendría que escribir esto. Me rompe el corazón que mi hija viva su vida sin su padre. No entiendo por qué sucedió esto, pero sé que amaba tanto a su hija y que jamás la abandonaría por voluntad propia. Por favor, compartan y, si pueden contribuir, agradecemos cualquier ayuda, incluyendo sus oraciones. Cualquier ayuda es bienvenida. Que Dios los bendiga a todos.
