Support for Jose Trinidad Vasquez's Funeral

Donation protected


It’s with a heavy heart that we announce the departure of Jose Trinidad Vasquez. He was a father, an uncle, a grandfather, a friend. To me, he was my grandpa. My grandpa was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer back in August, right before his 80th birthday. The cancer had spread to his entire body, leaving him with little to no room for treatment. He lived the last of his days surrounded by family as we awaited his departure. My grandpa didn’t know he had cancer. He just knew he was sick. My mother, the oldest of his daughters, is now left to make arrangements for his funeral as well as a celebration of his life. She has gone through two of her parents having cancer and my goal is to make this transition as easy as possible for her and my entire family. Funds allocated would be used to cover funeral expenses, as well as honoring his final wish of resting in San Julian, JAL, MX. My mom is one of the strongest people I know and I could not imagine the pain of losing a parent.

Rest in peace, Grandpa. Til next time

Es con el corazón apesadumbrado que anunciamos la salida de José Trinidad Vásquez. Era un padre, un tío, un abuelo, un amigo. Para mí, él era mi abuelo. A mi abuelo le diagnosticaron cáncer en etapa 4 en Agosto, justo antes de cumplir 80 años. El cáncer se había extendido a todo su cuerpo, dejándolo con poco o ninguna opción para el tratamiento. Vivió los últimos días rodeado de su familia mientras esperábamos su partida. Mi abuelo no sabía que tenía cáncer. Él solo sabía que estaba enfermo. Mi madre, la mayor de sus hijas, ahora tiene que hacer los arreglos para su funeral y celebración de su vida. Ella ha pasado por dos de sus padres con cáncer y mi objetivo es hacer que esta transición sea lo más fácil posible para ella y toda mi familia. Los fondos asignados se utilizarían para cubrir los gastos funerarios, así como para honrar su último deseo de descansar en San Julian, JAL, MX. Mi madre es una de las personas más fuertes que conozco y no podía imaginar el dolor de perder a un padre.

Descansa en paz, abuelo. Hasta la próxima
