<div>With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Josemanuel Peña, lovingly known as “Josemanuelito,” who left us on March 30, 2026. Born on December 27, 1999.

</div>

</div>

<div>My heart is broken as I write this. Josemanuelito was more than my cousin; he was like a brother to me. We grew up sharing a bond, and he filled our lives with love, laughter, and faith.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>He was kind, genuine, disciplined, and a natural leader—but above all, he was a man of God. His faith guided everything he did and inspired all of us to be better, to be grateful, and to live with love.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>He was an incredible son to my aunt and uncle, Jose Manuel Peña and Rina Archila, and the most loving brother to Patricia and Estefania. His love for his family had no limits. He loved life deeply. Soccer was one of his greatest passions, and always supporting his favorite team, Arsenal. He loved going to the gym, staying disciplined, And the love he shared with his girlfriend, Amanda, was something truly special. He dreamed of a future with her, of building a life together.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Josemanuelito was the light in every room. His laugh, his energy, his presence—there’s a void now that can never be filled. He touched so many lives, from his closest friends to the children who looked up to him as if he were family.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>As we grieve this immense loss, we ask for your support. The Peña and Archila families are facing unexpected funeral expenses and significant financial needs in the wake of Josemanuelito’s passing. Any contribution—no matter how small—will help us give him a dignified farewell and provide comfort to his family during this difficult time.

</div>

Mark, Chris, Josh, Felipe, Jhon, Joel, Ramiro
