Tio Rafaelito

We lost our dear uncle Rafelito due to this COVID-19 virus. Tio Rafaelito was one of the most loving and happiest souls in our family. I think something is said about the character of a person when they have an affinity towards animals and vice versa. Different pets ranging from birds to dogs to cats would always find him. It's as if they knew how big his heart was. God knew this too and decided to add him to his family of angels in heaven that include Mama, Papa, Tio Maximo and Tio Samuel, and Tía Carmela just to name a few. I can only imagine how happy and how full his heart is watching over us along with our family's angels.

Funeral arrangements are currently being taken on by my father, his brother, Teofilo. I asked him details today on how the arrangements were going. The funds left are not enough to cover all expenses for his burial. Due to the stay at home regulations to keep people safe, he has not been working, nor has my mother in the last month or so. My father does not have it in him to ask for help from anyone, he actually refuses to do so therefore, I am setting up this fund. We know these are difficult times for many so now more than ever, any contribution to cut costs will be extremely appreciated. I am please asking you to chip in whatever amount you can, any amount would be of great help. Every little bit counts. Tio Rafelito watching from above will also be so thankful. Thank you.
