Sergio Diaz

We received news about our beloved Sergio Diaz. He was on his way home from work, having to walk or receive rides from friends and coworkers for about a week as our car had technical issues with the battery and wouldn’t turn on.

He tragically passed away October 15th by being hit fatally by a car as he attempted to cross the street. The driver having fled the scene. It’s tragic this happened, it’s still hard to process.

A lot of people loved Sergio, his favorite thing to do was drink beer whenever he had the day off work. He also enjoyed watching movies and shows, eating take-out food, and eating a variety of junk food. He was known to be a jokester at work and was dedicated and hardworking. He was a great man and one of my favorite traits about him was his charismatic personality when it came to meeting people, greeting them, and adding volume to the conversation.

As he was known and loved by many, his mother neglected him when he was a child and had abandoned him at an early age. This set himself to grow up without a mother and father and negatively impacted his health. My mom would remind him that his family was with us and we wouldn’t leave him alone. She would try to consult him to go to the doctor, he always declined and claimed he was mentally strong.

My mother, Herodi, had known him and was part of our family for twelve years. He was an active person and loved playing soccer when he was younger. His other talent was dubstep dancing and listened to bands such as Gorillaz being the most prominent. We would have dubstep dance battles and try to recreate a dance video from Marquese Scott (being his all time favorite DubDancer) called Dragon House Illusion of Choice. We would always geek out when we hit the dance moves. Truly one of the most memorable memories with him and the family. Sergio had inspired my sister, Kimberly, into joining a dance club in middle school, high school, and a few years in college. Throughout the years, we would go out to eat at buffets, go to a park, play soccer, and other family activities. He always loved my mom and they were dating for years. He showed love and care to me and my sister, wanting us to have a good life ahead of us. Sergio told my mom that he never wanted to steal my biological dad’s love away from us, but to us he was already a father figure.

We are appreciative and grateful for the love he has given to my mom. She is devastated to have lost him and shares great memories of him. As any other relationship they had arguments from time to time. At the end, they would have always made up. She waited for her lover to come home that night, as she had called off work due to having waist pain. They had worked together in the same company. She heard knocking at the door thinking it was Sergio. Unfortunately, she received the tragic news from her supervisors from work. She couldn’t believe it and was waiting for him to come back home. It has been painful for my mother, she has been strong but her love for him was undoubtedly immense. On behalf of my mother, I can’t explain how much her heart has been in pain.

We ask for any assistance, with donations, prayers, and any other form of help. During this time of healing, we will greatly appreciate the financial assistance to help fund Sergio’s funeral expenses. His viewing and funeral will be on October 24th from 4pm-8pm followed by his cremation. As being a solitary mother, my sister lives out of town for school but will continue to help us as much as she can so only me and my mother will be living together. I am her son and I wish to stay by my mother’s side and support her. The donations will also help with being able to continue paying bills, food, and invest into our future. I know we are all going through some difficult times, so we appreciate your time. Thank you for getting to know Sergio.

Recibimos noticias sobre nuestro querido Sergio Díaz. Estaba de camino a casa desde el trabajo, teniendo que caminar o recibir viajes de amigos y compañeros de trabajo durante aproximadamente una semana, ya que nuestro coche tenía problemas técnicos con la batería y no se encendía.

Falleció trágicamente el 15 de octubre al ser atropellado mortalmente por un coche mientras intentaba cruzar la calle. El conductor ha huido de la escena. Es trágico que esto haya pasado, todavía es difícil de procesar.

Mucha gente amaba a Sergio, lo que más le gustaba hacer era beber cerveza cada vez que tenía el día libre en el trabajo. También le gustaba ver películas y programas, comer comida para llevar y comer una variedad de comida chatarra. Era conocido por ser un bromista en el trabajo y era dedicado y trabajador. Era un gran hombre y uno de mis rasgos favoritos de él era su personalidad carismática cuando se trataba de conocer gente, saludarla y añadir volumen a la conversación.

Como era conocido y amado por muchos, su madre lo descuidó cuando era un niño y lo había abandonado a una edad temprana. Esto se puso a crecer sin madre y padre y afectó negativamente a su salud. Mi madre le recordaba que su familia estaba con nosotros y que no lo dejaríamos solo. Ella trataba de consultarlo para ir al médico, él siempre se negó y afirmó que era mentalmente fuerte.

Mi madre, Herodi, lo conocía y formaba parte de nuestra familia durante doce años. Era una persona activa y le encantaba jugar al fútbol cuando era más joven. Su otro talento era el baile dubstep y escuchaba a bandas como Gorillaz, que era la más prominente. Tendríamos batallas de baile dubstep e intentaríamos recrear un vídeo de baile de Marquese Scott (siendo su DubDancer favorito de todos los tiempos) llamado Dragon House Illusion of Choice. Siempre nos enloqueábamos cuando tomábamos los movimientos de baile. Verdaderamente uno de los recuerdos más memorables con él y la familia. Sergio había inspirado a mi hermana, Kimberly, a unirse a un club de baile en la escuela secundaria, y unos años en la universidad. A lo largo de los años, salíamos a comer a los buffets, íbamos a un parque, jugábamos al fútbol y a otras actividades familiares. Siempre amó a mi madre y estuvieron saliendo durante años. Nos mostró amor y cuidado a mí y a mi hermana, queriendo que pidiéramos una buena vida por delante. Sergio le dijo a mi madre que nunca quiso robarnos el amor de mi padre biológico, pero para nosotros ya era una figura paterna.

Estamos agradecidos y agradecidos por el amor que ha dado a mi madre. Ella está devastada por haberlo perdido y comparte grandes recuerdos de él. Como cualquier otra relación, tenían discusiones de vez en cuando. Al final, siempre se habrían reconciliado. Mi madre Esperó a que su amante llegara a casa esa noche, ya que había llamado al trabajo que no podría ir debido a que tenía dolor en la cintura. Habían trabajado juntos en la misma empresa. Escuchó llamar a la puerta pensando que era Sergio. Desafortunadamente, recibió la trágica noticia de sus supervisores del trabajo. Ella no podía creerlo y estaba esperando a que él volviera a casa. Ha sido doloroso para mi madre, ella ha sido fuerte, pero su amor por él fue, sin duda, inmenso. En nombre de mi madre, no puedo explicar cuánto le ha dole el corazón.

Pedimos cualquier ayuda, con donaciones, oraciones y cualquier otra forma de ayuda. Durante este tiempo de curación, apreciaremos enormemente la asistencia financiera para ayudar a financiar los gastos funerarios de Sergio. Su visita y funeral será el 24 de octubre de 4 p.m. a 8 p.m., seguido de su cremación. Como madre solitaria, mi hermana vive fuera de la ciudad para ir a la escuela, pero seguirá ayudándonos tanto como pueda, así que solo mi madre y yo viviremos juntos. Soy su hijo y deseo quedarme al lado de mi madre y apoyarla. Las donaciones también ayudarán a poder seguir pagando las facturas, la comida e invertir en nuestro futuro. Sé que todos estamos pasando por momentos difíciles, así que apreciamos tu tiempo. Gracias por conocer a Sergio.
