Honoring Pedro"Peter"Palafox:Support for His Son & Expenses

Hello, my name is Letty, Pedro's eldest sister. I'm reaching out during this incredibly difficult time for my family. We recently lost my beloved brother, Pedro “Peter” Palafox, due to medical complications on December 2, 2024. His passing has left our hearts shattered and placed an unexpected financial burden on our family. Most importantly, he was the sole provider and greatest supporter of his son, Andrew Palafox.

Pedro was more than just a brother, he was a loving father and uncle, and a cherished friend. His warmth, kindness, and unwavering support touched so many lives. My brother Pedro was the definition of a hard worker. Whether it was for his family, his friends, or even strangers, he always went above and beyond to help anyone in need. He spent long hours providing for his loved ones, but no matter how tired he was, he never hesitated to lend a hand, offer a kind word, or be there for someone going through a tough time. His selflessness and dedication left a lasting impact on everyone who knew Pedro. Over the years, he worked as a mechanic, fabricator, electrician, welder, plumber, and his last position was a mechanic at D’Arrigo. He always used his skills to provide for his son and help others. Whether he was fixing an engine, or ensuring each job was done with dedication and care. He was the kind of person people relied on. No job was too big or too small for him if it meant helping someone in need. Beyond his hard work and dedication, my brother Pedro had an incredible sense of humor. He loved to make people laugh, and his jokes, big smile, and quick wit could brighten even the darkest days. He knew how to lighten the mood with a well-timed joke, he had a special way of bringing joy to everyone around him.

My brother leaves behind his only son, Andrew who is autistic. Pedro was his caretaker and provider. He dedicated his life to supporting and encouraging Andrew to believe in himself, to keep trying, and never to let his autism define him. My brother always reminded him to focus on his strengths and to find a path in life where he could build a career and thrive. With my brother's sudden passing, Andrew has lost his greatest supporter and role model. These funds will also ensure that Andrew continues to receive the care, opportunities, and encouragement he needs to honor his father's wishes and build a meaningful future.

We are raising funds to:

-Cover funeral and memorial expenses.

-Support Andrew as he adjusts to life without his father, ensuring he has the care and opportunity to honor his dad’s dreams for him.

No matter how big or small of a contribution. Thank you for helping us during this difficult time. If you’re unable to donate, we kindly ask that you share this campaign to help spread the word.

Thank you for keeping our family in your thoughts and for honoring my brother’s memory. Your support means more than we can express.

With gratitude,

Letty Palafox Caldera

You will be missed dearly and we will love you forever!
