Help Support Harry's Loving Family in Need

My name is Miguel Alvarez and I am raising money for my best friend, Harry Torres, a beloved brother and friend. I'm afraid his sudden passing caught all of us by surprise. We are deeply saddened to share this news in hopes of some support.

Harry Torres was a devoted Metropolitan Transportation Authority conductor for the New York City Subway system who fought bravely against emphysema. Harry was not just a colleague; he was a friend, a mentor, and a beloved member of his social community. His dedication to his work, friends, and family was evident in everything he did. His laughter was contagious and brought joy to many. As we mourn his loss, we aim to honor his memory by supporting his family during this difficult time.

A little bit about Harry.

Harry was born to a modest family in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and grew up with three sisters. Right after high school, Harry knew he had a knack for helping the public, so he worked hard to find jobs in the customer service field and quickly found work at Avis Rent a Car and later the Metropolitan Transportation Authority as a conductor, in which he spent the latter part of a decade. He also was a vocal union member in the Local Metropolitan Transportation Union. His commitment to ensuring the safe and efficient travel of countless commuters was unmatched. Known for his kindness, professionalism, and unwavering support for his coworkers, Harry was a pillar of strength within the workplace. Tragically, his battle ended his life short at the young age of 56.
