We are raising funds for the family of Manuel Javier Pinzon who tragically passed away Wednesday 5/28/25. He was in the woods behind his with his 8 year old twin grand daughters and his sister trying to check on a baby deer that was back there when a large tree limb broke off of a tree and came crashing down. Manuel pushed the twins to safety while tragically putting himself in harms way to protect them. He was struck in the head by the limb and did not survive. He left behind his wife of 50 years, Beatriz Arias and numerous other family members who loved him dearly.
