Honoring Jefferson's Bright Spirit and Dreams

On October 6, 2024, the world lost a beacon of light. Jefferson Gutierrez Quintanilla, just 19 years old, tragically passed away . He was a dreamer—full of hope and aspirations, with a bright future ahead. Recently, he made the courageous decision to move to Maryland, determined to save enough money to get his own apartment and finally live with me, his younger brother, Esnaider.

Jeff brought joy and love to everyone around him. His laughter and spirit were infectious, and his dreams inspired us all. Now, he leaves behind three younger siblings—Noel Jr., Anderson, and me—as well as our heartbroken mother. We are devastated by this loss, and in our grief, we’ve created this GoFundMe to ensure he receives the proper burial he deserves.

Any support you can provide would mean the world to us during this incredibly difficult time. Thank you for honoring Jefferson’s memory with your kindness.
