On the morning of July 23rd, Marcelino Gerardo Moran passed away at the age of 31 in Visalia, California. He is survived by his spouse (Isela) and two sons (Ivan and Luis Moran). We are kindly reaching out to inform family and friends with the sudden and inconceivable tragedy. 

Marcelino, or better known as Lalo, was born in Visalia, CA to a migrant family. As an adolescent, he had a unique smile and charismatic personality that would place a grin on anyone's face. He gained most of his educational background in the San Joaquin Valley,  while helping his older siblings work in fruit orchards during the weekends as a mean to support the family. Lalo was a resililient young man who apsired to challenge himself with meeting his personal goals and setting foot across the country with many fulfilling adventures. He later met his lifelong partner and his passions towards life redirected towards setting new and memorable adventures with the love of his life Isela or also known as Chela in 2015. Soonafter, Ivan and Luis joined the family team which filled their home with joy and future plans. Unfortunatelly, life never fails to throw a curb ball and forever change the lives of many of us. However, we remember Lalo as the funny, humble, and friendly young man who loved his Oaxacan traditions. You will be grmissed, but soon we'll meet again! 

The goal of this GoFundMe is to extend what financial help we can for Isela, Ivan, and Luis Moran. Although these funds cannot possibly cover the grief and loss of a loved one, we hope to alleviate at least a part of the financial burden that has been placed on Isela and her two chuldren.
