Hey, this is my dad. As you can see, he was a family man. He was a father, a brother, a brother-in-law, a cousin, and a warrior. He had colon cancer in 2017 and beat it in less than a year. Five years later, he was diagnosed with leukemia and was in remission but started having complications with prior surgeries and treatments. He passed away on October 16, 2024, leaving his loving wife, Maria Mendoza, who was with him till his last breath. My dad fought till he could. He never gave up and always provided for my mom as much as he could. He was the strongest person we knew. Emilio was loved by countless people and we know we can raise enough money for his expenses. Thank you in advance, and please keep our family in your prayers.
