It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our beloved Wilson "Willy" Sarmiento, who left us on 10/31/2025. He was a kind, loving, generous soul who touched the lives of everyone who knew him.

Our family is devastated by this loss, and we are doing our best to honor Willy’s memory by ensuring he receives a proper farewell surrounded by loved ones. One of Willy’s final wishes—and what our family deeply desires—is to have him laid to rest in Ecuador so that he can be among family and ancestors.

Unfortunately, the costs of funeral arrangements, transportation of the body overseas, and related expenses are far more than our family can manage on our own. These include:

Funeral service and viewing costs

Preparation and documentation for international transport

Flight and shipping expenses to Ecuador

Burial or memorial arrangements upon arrival

We are humbly asking for your help during this difficult time. Any contribution—no matter how small—will bring us closer to fulfilling Willy's final journey home. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page with others who may be able to help.

We are deeply grateful for your love, support, and prayers. Your kindness means more than words can express.

With heartfelt thanks,

Glo

family friend
