To Honor & Celebrate the life of Gary Arellano

Hello.

 

Thank you for contributing to the effort to honor our son, father, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend by taking the time to donate to the expenses related to properly laying Gary Arellano, our hero and now, our angel, to rest.

 

Any and all donations are appreciated and will be incredibly helpful.

 

Gary Arellano was 63 years old when his life was taken while trying to stop a fight at La Alma park. La Alma park is a fundamental part of the Arellano family history; many memories were made at this park and will continue for current and future generations. La Alma park was a place Gary visited consistently with friends and family for over 40 years, where he enjoyed his music, played sports, and enjoyed the recreational offerings of the facility. It was home.

 

Gary's love for his family is incomparable. His heart and soul created a path of compassion, thoughtfulness, integrity, strength, and many admirable core characteristics. He was, is, and will always be loved. His presence in life and passing will have a tremendous impact on many. He provided the pathway to a blueprint for living with love, courtesy, respect, and manners.

 

We love you. You will be missed beyond measure by so many people. Your life is one to be celebrated, and you will be honored.

The Arellano family would also like to petition the closing of La Alma Park and Recreation Center. This is the last action Gary would want to happen especially as a result of his death.  Please sign the petition, https://www.change.org/SaveLaAlmaInHonorOfGaryArellano.

We are also hosting a benefit and would love to see everyone. Please come by and show your support, and thank you for any support you are able to offer. We are also accepting donations, or prizes we can offer for the raffle.
