Manuel Gonzalez: Lost His Battle to Cancer

Hi, my name is Katerina Gonzalez. We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of my father, who courageously battled colon cancer for a longgg time. He was barely diagnosed on January 12th, but he had been feeling ill for several years. Despite his valiant efforts and the unwavering support of his loved ones, Manuel Gonzalez passed away peacefully at the age of 51. He endured significant suffering throughout his illness, but we find comfort in believing he is now at peace. He will be remembered as a loving father, grandfather, partner, son, and friend.

Known for his unwavering kindness, willingly to help others, and dedication to his family, he left a lasting impact on everyone he met. Throughout his life, he was the cornerstone of our family. Unfortunately, the financial burden of his illness, coupled with living paycheck to paycheck, has left our family unprepared for the unexpected expenses of a funeral.

Our mother, who devoted her life to caring for our family, now faces this challenge without any savings, as our father had been unable to work since the end of last year. This GoFundMe campaign is set up to help our family with medical expenses, funeral arrangements, and other unforeseen costs associated with his passing. Any contribution, no matter the size, will greatly aid our family during this challenging time and will be received with immense gratitude. Thank you for your support and for keeping Manuel Gonzalez's memory alive in your thoughts and hearts.
