Hi everyone, it is with a heavy heart that we share the unexpected passing of my brother Manny (Makina) Martinez. This loss has completely shaken our family, and we are still trying to process the reality of life without him.

Manny was a loving husband, a devoted father, and someone who always showed up for the people he cared about. He worked hard to provide for his family and made sure his wife and children were always supported, loved, and protected. Now his wife Soily and children Analy and Jariel are facing an unimaginable loss not only emotionally, but financially as well. During this already heartbreaking time, we want to ease some of the burden they are carrying.

We are asking for support to help cover immediate expenses and to provide stability for his family as they navigate the days ahead. Your donation will help with things like housing, daily living costs, and other unexpected expenses that come with such a sudden loss.

If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page with others. Every bit of support, whether financial or simply spreading the word, truly means the world to us.

Thank you for keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

With love and gratitude,

Steve Mendez
