My older brother, Miguel Lira Sanchez (aka Patas or El Güero), was a good man. He loved the Chivas soccer team, enchiladas and loud music. He was a simple man.

My brother was going to turn 40 yrs. old on April 12th, but his life was tragically taken on January 11th. He was going home and never made it. He loved helping people, especially the homeless. He never hurt anyone.

I never thought I'd be writing this for my siblings. I'm not good at asking for help. Life is fleeting and my brother's luck unfortunately ran out.

If you are able to, please help us put my brother to rest.
