A Tennis Warrior Who Fought ALS for 37 Years

With heavy hearts, we share the passing of our beloved Carmelo R. Diaz Rohena, who courageously battled ALS for 37 years. Before his diagnosis, he was a passionate tennis player, finding joy and purpose on the court. Though ALS took away his ability to play, it never took away his love for the game, his competitive spirit, his live, or his unwavering determination to live life to the fullest. His strength, resilience, and kindness inspired everyone who knew him.

As we navigate this difficult time, we are raising funds to help cover memorial expenses, outstanding medical costs, and honor his memory in a meaningful way. Any contribution, no matter how small, would mean the world to our family and help us give him the farewell he deserves.

If you are not able to donate, we kindly ask that you share this page and keep our family in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you for your love and support during this heartbreaking time.
