Blessings all, we are Juanita and Rob the parents of Raymond Aguirre, we are writing to you with a heavy hearts to share that on February 8, 2026 at approximately 2:30 am we tragically lost our son Raymond Aguirre and our cousin Niko Banuelos in a double homicide in downtown San Jose. Our family is pleading for help from the public and all of our loved ones during this devastating time. we are seeking assistance to cover funeral cost and the expenses associated with laying our son to rest. Any and all help would be deeply appreciated as we navigate this tragedy.

Raymond was a kind, sweet, protective and loving son, brother, nephew, grandson, cousin and friend. he touched a lot of hearts and became family to a lot of his friends. He loved taking his dogs up to Sprig Lake one of his favorite places to go and just feel at peace. Ray loved us all so deeply and we loved him endlessly. Please keep our family in your prayers. Thank you for your support and kindness.

Sincerely, Robert and Juanita Pereira
