Funeral Services For Raul Meraz

Donation protected
Raul Antonio Meraz was born July 12, 1976, as the 13Th child of Manuela and Jose Meraz. He had a hardworking entrepreneurial spirit that was driven by his deep love for his family and community.
Even after he lost his eyesight as the result of diabetic complications due to a car accident.
He didn’t let that stop him. He wrestled with depression and rose above it. He continued providing for his family. He may have lost his ability to see, but he never lost sight of his goal and purpose! He had excellent memory and math skills!
His wife Abigail and two amazing children Bethany and Raul Meraz Jr. stepped up to the plate and lent him their eyes. He not only provided for his family, but also helped others rise above their circumstances. Raul shared his love and respect with everyone he came across. He always gave the best advice and encouragement with his jokes and contagious laughter.
Raul and Abby had just completed a home remodel, not for pure aesthetics but to help facilitate his movement throughout their home. This was a real safety concern. This loss caught them in a very difficult financial state. Therefore, we are reaching out to you today. Friends, and family, we need your help. Would you please consider pitching in to help give our Raul a proper send off? We appreciate you taking the time to hear our plea. Thank you and God bless.
Raúl Antonio Meraz nació el 12 de julio 1976, como el hijo número 13 de Manuela y José Meraz. Tenía un espíritu emprendedor trabajador que fue impulsado por su profundo amor por su familia y comunidad.
Incluso después de que perdió la vista como resultado de complicaciones diabéticas debido a un accidente automovilístico.
No dejó que eso lo detuviera. Luchó con la depresión y se elevó por encima de ella. Continuó manteniendo a su familia. Puede que haya perdido su capacidad de ver, ¡pero nunca perdió de vista su meta y propósito! ¡Tenía una excelente memoria y habilidades matemáticas!
Su esposa Abigail y sus dos increíbles hijos, Bethany y Raúl Meraz Jr., se acercaron al plato y le prestaron sus ojos. No solo mantuvo a su familia, sino que también ayudó a otros a superar sus circunstancias. Raúl compartió su amor y respeto con todas las personas con las que se cruzó. Siempre daba los mejores consejos y ánimos con sus bromas y risas contagiosas.
Raúl y Abby acababan de completar una remodelación de la casa, no por pura estética, sino para ayudar a facilitar su movimiento por toda la casa. Este fue un verdadero problema de seguridad. Esta pérdida los atrapó en un estado financiero muy difícil. Por lo tanto, nos estamos acercando a usted hoy. Amigos y familiares, necesitamos su ayuda. ¿Considerarías colaborar para ayudar a que nuestro Raúl tenga una despedida adecuada? Agradecemos que se tome el tiempo para escuchar nuestra súplica. Gracias y Dios le bendiga.
