For Aaron Alaniz and Family, A Giant Among Us

Donation protected
Aaron Alaniz known affectionately by many as “El Gigante”  passed away on August 30, 2020, at the age of 38, leaving behind his loving wife“Liz” Elizabeth Ann Koziel, and the Alaniz family. Aaron Alaniz was the oldest son of Norma Alaniz and Javier Alaniz and the cherished brother of Alyzza,  

Aaron Alaniz was one of a kind human being. He was always quick to laugh and even quicker to give help to those around him and he will be lovingly remembered by many. Diagnosed with MS (Multiple Sclerosis) when he was 18, followed by colon cancer in December of 2018. Aaron was never one to ask for pity, and he kept fighting until his last breath and he showed us all how strong he was.

Such a tragic loss brings not only emotional pain but also tremendous financial stress on Liz and the Alaniz family. We ask that you find it in your heart to provide them with much needed monetary support. We recognize that many are under financial stress due to the COVID-19 pandemic and are immensely thankful for any contribution you can provide.
