Armando was my friend for over 20 years. He was a good man. I always admired his dedication to his family. He worked tirelessly to provide for his wife, their 21-year-old son who despite being on the spectrum is on his way to graduate from MCC this May, and their 2-year-old baby. Despite living in a small, aging house and facing financial challenges, Armando never complained and always put his family first.

On his 50th birthday, October 24th, 2025, Armando was admitted to the hospital with severe heartache and breathing problems. Doctors discovered he had diabetes and acute kidney damage, which required emergency dialysis. Over the past four months, he had been in and out of hospitals and rehabilitation facilities, fighting bravely every step of the way. Sadly, his condition worsened, and his organs eventually shut down. He passed away on Sunday February 8th.

Armando was the sole provider for his family, they are now facing the possibility of losing their home to foreclosure. We are raising funds to help cover funeral expenses and to support his wife and children as they navigate this heartbreaking time. Your donation, no matter the amount, will make a meaningful difference for Armando's family. Please consider helping them through this unimaginable loss. Thank you for your kindness and support.
