I am the mother of Valentino aka Tino aka Val… on 6/13/26 Saturday morning around 12:30 am my son was taken away from us from gun violence. We are trying to raise money to help with the financial burden of taking off work to be with his siblings and to navigate through this difficult moment. Val was an amazing person/ soul . He was a son / brother / nephew / uncle / grandson . He was loved by so many people… Val was one of a kind. He had a genuine heart and soul. He was the life of the party .. If he knew you were not feeling good or just feeling down he would do his best to make sure you would laugh and forget why you were down … He was set to graduate this coming up school year . He was looking forward to graduating and to start a career into auto mechanics. He had a passion for fixing cars and tinkering. No donations is too small… We understand if you cannot donate at this time, please share and even comment on a memory of Val … Thank you for taking the time for reading and sharing this post.
