Funeral Expenses for Ronald Garcia
It is with great sadness that we let you know our loved one Ronald Garcia has passed away early on the morning of September 15th. Ronald was born January 28th, 2003, in Chiquimula, Guatemala. He came to the United States in 2020 as a teenager, and is already gone at just 21 years old. A flash in the pan, even in his short time here, he burned so brightly, his light will shine on forever. Ronald was a huge soccer fan and his favorite team to root for, was Barcelona. He didn't just cook for his job but also loved cooking for people at his home. He enjoyed playing video games with friends, especially FIFA and Dragon Ball-Z. Most of all, Ronald loved making people laugh. Notorious for his sly smile, his infectious spirit took hold of everyone around him. He was an amazing brother, cousin, son, and friend to those closest to him. It's not hard to imagine that if the roles were reversed, he would be the first in line to help support his family at a time like this. No one can anticipate this kind of loss at such a young age. We are trying to gather the funds for all the expenses to give him a proper goodbye. Our family and friends are deeply affected by this terrible loss. Help us to raise money for the service and to send Ronald home to his parents in Guatemala to be laid to his final rest.

Where the funds will go:
We searched all over the DMV for an affordable location for the service, and this was the lowest cost we could find. The funeral home needs a $5000 down-payment out of the $8000 total to proceed with the contract. They are able to cover the embalming, casket, hearse, viewing, etc. for a little over $3000. They need the other $5000 to transport the body back home to Guatemala to his parents where a service for the rest of his family will be held at home. We need your help now more than ever to cover these costs. No one plans to bury their family at such a young age. Ronald's status prevents us from seeking any government assistance, so the entire cost is falling on the hands of the few. Ever bit counts, $10, $20, anything. Please help.
Con gran tristeza les informamos que nuestro ser querido Ronald García falleció la madrugada del 15 de septiembre. Nuestras familiares y amigos están profundamente afectados por esta terrible pérdida. Ayúdanos a recaudar dinero para enviar a Ronald a casa en Guatemala para que descanse.
