Unexpected expenses due to death of Miguel Perez

We are deeply saddened by the senseless death of our loved one, Miguel Perez. He was a loving, hospitable, and caring husband, father, son, brother, uncle, cousin, friend, coworker, and neighbor. Anyone that met him was drawn to him, even when there was a language barrier.

We are truly grateful for the outpouring of love, support, and encouragement from friends locally and throughout the nation. Many have asked about a Gofundme to contribute to unexpected expenses. That is why we are creating this.

My sister was his wife, Maria Perez. The money would go directly to her to support her and her daughters. This is their explanation of what the money would be used towards:

Miguel had been off work for almost a year due to a bad car accident. Because of this, he lost the life insurance he had through work. So this money will be used for the funeral expenses. Also because he was off work, there was some accrued debt that now needs to be paid off.

The vehicle he was in when shot was currently our only vehicle. It is being used in the murder investigation, with no word to how long it will take to get it back. Even if and when we do get it back, we do not want to drive in it and may not get the value from it due to this incident.

We truly appreciate any and all contributions. Thank you for your love and support. Your love is a magnificent expression of love from our God, Jehovah. We look forward to the time when we will see Miguel again in the resurrection to paradise earth soon to come.
