Vanessa Mabanta is organizing this fundraiser.

Dear friends and family,

It is with unimaginable pain that we share the sudden passing of our beloved Abel Antonio—most lovingly known as Tony, a devoted father, husband, son, brother, and friend.

Tony leaves behind his wife Amber Fuentes and their beautiful 14-month-old son, Mateo. He is also survived by his father, sisters, and extended family who are all grieving the heartbreaking loss of such a bright and loving soul.

As Amber navigates this new reality—grieving while caring for their baby, we are rallying around her with a GoFundMe to help provide stability, healing, and long-term support.

Your generosity will help cover:

Immediate living cost for Amber and Mateo while Amber is out of work
Therapy and mental health care to support Amber’s healing and wellbeing
A college fund for Mateo, to ensure Tony’s dreams for his son live on
Childcare and transition support as Amber rebuilds a life for herself and her baby

We also have organized a Meal Train for those who’d like to sign up to bring meals, run errands, or help with childcare. You can find the link here: Meal Train

Amber, Mateo, and the entire family are deeply grateful for your prayers, presence, and generosity during this time. Thank you for being a part of this chosen family that is holding them close in love and light.

With love,

Friends and family of Amber Fuentes
