Please Help us Honor Antonio's Memory and Last Request

Hello LOS community! We want to start by thanking you all for your previous support and generosity for Antonio during his fight against cancer. Though we are devastated to lose him, we want to honor his last wishes and make sure that his family can keep their home.

His wife Imara and their two children, Rommel and Greyner Jr., are grieving the loss of their father and sole supporter. While Imara is processing this loss, she is also responsible for dealing with the legal and economic aspects of a death and supporting their family. With English as a second language, it is proving to be more challenging and stressful than anticipated. Imara is a full-time mother who cares for her two sons and currently can not work. Their oldest son attends a special day school and the youngest is only in middle school. As the sole parent, she now has to be there to meet their needs, both financial and emotional.

In talking with Antonio before he passed, he made it clear that his last wish is that his family can pay off their house and have a place to live when he is no longer there. The previous GoFundMe helped immensely reduce their financial burden but there is a remaining balance of $22,000 that will allow them to stay in the home and provide some semblance of security, safety and normalcy.

We know that you all have given so much already and we are asking for your continued empathy and generosity in meeting this final goal for his family. We believe that the best way we can honor Antonio, his legacy and his work over the past 18 years at Live Oak is to ensure his family does not lose their home or anything more than they already have.

If you have any amount to give, no matter how small, it would be a blessing to his family and appreciated greatly by all who knew and loved him. We ask that you all share this with anyone who may have the resources to help or were fortunate enough to have known him. Once this goal has been met, we know that his family will have the stability of knowing their home is their own and start adjust to a new life without their beloved father and husband.

Thank you so much for your continued support.

Love,

Imara, Rommel, Greyney Jr., John, Kendall, Audrey, and Amelia
