Help Bring Emiliano Francisco Gomes Home for his Final Rest

Our beloved, Emiliano Francisco Gomes suddenly passed away in Portugal.
He moved to Portugal three years ago, from Guiné-Bissau, Africa for graduate studies, he works tirelessly - studying during the day and working night shift as a security guard to pay for his education and support his wife and 11- year old son back home.
While walking to work, he suddenly felt short of breath and collapsed. A bystander called for help, and was taken to the hospital, and passed away the same night.
His friends, colleagues and entire family are devastated. We are asking for support to cover the cost of transportating his body back home to Guiné- Bissau and arranging his burial.
Any donation, no matter the amount, will help us honor his memory. Please share and contribute if you can. We are deeply grateful for your kindness.

With heartfelt graduate,
Anastacia, friends and family
