In Loving Memory Of Lazaro Amador

It’s been 3 Weeks since Laz Passed Away. The Void of his Voice, Laughter, Jokes, Hugs and Smiles will be Forever Missed by his Mom, Dad, Siblings, Family & Friends and his MUSIC will be specially missed by the Eastern Michigan University Marching Band. On Behalf of Lazaro’s Parents and Myself I want to Thank EVERYONE that made it possible for his Family to give Lazaro a Beautiful Memorial Service and although his Parents and Roommates are left with many unresolved issues the GO FUND ME Campaign truly served its Purpose of making sure his Parents weren’t left with the Financial Burden of the Funeral, Burial, & Travel Accomdations. Michigan will always be a Special Place for Laz and we thank the Marching Band Community for all its Beautiful Tributes to our Beloved Lazaro. Every Donation from Every Donor Big or Small contributed to this Cause and we Sincerely are Grateful for each and everyone of you. Without Your Donations, Your Messages, Your Pictures, Your Stories and Your Funny Videos I don’t know if Our Family would have made it through this difficult time. I Promise that Lazaro Legacy will Live On. His Father will Honor his Memory with the “Lazaro Amador Tuba Scholarship”. We will give back to the EMU Music Community as they brought so much Happiness into Lazaro’s Life. Thank You from the Bottom of our Hearts. Keep Playing Music In Heaven Laz 11/08/18.


It is with great sadness that I write this story about our Angel Lazaro Manuel Amador who suddenly passed away on Thursday November 8, 2018 at Eastern Michigan University. 

Lazaro was 19 Years Old and living his dream as a Student and Band Member at the EMU School of Music where he played the Tuba. The Tuba became his passion at an early age and he knew he wanted to go to Music School since he was very young so to say he was truly living his best life at EMU is to say the least.  Lazaro was beloved by his Bandmates, Classmates, Professors and Faculty. He spent every moment he could doing what he Loved. He was also a Staff Member at EMU. Today EMU is mourning his loss as we are. Lazaro was found unresponsive in the Music Room so we know he took his last breath surrounded by his Instruments. 

Tito as our family called him was truly an amazing Son, Brother, Nephew and Grandson he made us all very proud. He left us too early and now we are left with a void and just the memories of his Smile and his Tuba but we all know Tito left knowing how loved he was by everyone. 

His sudden passing leaves his Parents with Medical Bills and Funeral Arrangements that no parent should have to endure so we are asking our Family, Friends and the Community to Help Us Raise the Funds to Bring Lazaro Back HOME to West Palm Beach so his Parents can Lay him to Rest...... Thank You On Behalf of The Amador & Leon Family 

Fly High Tito 
Till We Meet Again 
We Love You
