In Memory of Emmanuel: Aid for Carol

Donation protected
Our father/father-in-law, Emmanuel Benitez, sadly passed away on August 20th, 2024, after a battle with sepsis at the age of 61. He dealt with various health issues over the years, but he always persevered and never let them get him down. He was in the hospital for 9 days and in the ICU for 6 of those days. He leaves behind his wife Carol, son Gabriel, and daughter-in-law Melanie who are all trying their best to navigate life without him.

Emmanuel was a friend to all he met, quickly putting people at ease with his warm and sociable personality. He owned a roofing business that he took much pride in. He truly lived in the moment and encouraged others to do the same.

We have set up this account to provide aid to his wife Carol and provide her assistance for the medical expenses incurred during his hospital stay. Any contributions are immensely appreciated.
