In Loving Memory of Henrique Vasconcellos “Kiko”

On October 3rd, our dear beloved Henrique Vasconcellos “Kiko” transitioned to heaven after a long battle with cancer. Nearly 2 years ago, Kiko was diagnosed with an aggressive mutation of thyroid cancer, yet his spirit remained strong through all the grueling treatments and pain. No matter the challenges he faced, he always found a way to sing and laugh, spreading joy to those around him. That resilient spirit is a testament to who he truly was.

If any of you have ever had the pleasure of knowing Kiko, you would agree that he was one of the most charismatic, intelligent, and quick-witted people you could ever meet. He had an adventurous spirit and a big heart, always generous and eager to help others. Kiko was full of life and could even make strangers smile with his warmth and humor. He knew how to tell a great story or joke, and his kindness left a lasting impression on everyone around him. The list of his wonderful qualities goes on and on.

Among the family members mourning the loss of Kiko is his devoted companion of 30 years, Vanessa. Vanessa and Kiko shared a love like no other; they were truly the love of each other's lives. Vanessa is grappling with the profound grief of navigating life without him. Along with her heartache, she is faced with the overwhelming burden of medical bills, mortgage payments, memorial arrangements, and other expenses. During this incredibly difficult time, we would love to come together to support her.

Any contribution, no matter how small, can make a significant difference in easing her path forward and honoring the incredible love they shared. If you are unable to contribute financially, we whole heartedly welcome your prayers for Vanessa and the family during this challenging time. Thank you for keeping them in your hearts.
