UPDATED:
I am helping my sister raise money toward the unexpected funeral
costs of her beloved fiance Joaquin Dominguez, in Colorado, May 2014.
On the morning of Wednesday May 14, 2014, we got the sad word
that Joaquin had died in his sleep while visiting his father in
Colorado. The autoposy revealed that Joaquin likely passed due to a
heart attack.
Delanie and Joaquin had been dating for 5 years and engaged for
2. Though they had not yet set a date to be married, we did an
engagement photo session for them at the Ice Park in Fairbanks,
Alaska, in March. Joaquin, a generally shy, or "guarded"
man, freely let his love for my sister show while capturing their photographs.
Having observed their relationship over several years, I was
proud of the changes I saw in both my sister and future
brother-in-law, as they committed their lives to eachother.
Joaquin leaves behind his son Roman, who lives in Colorado, his
parents, step parents, sister Vanessa, extended family in Alaska and
Colorado, his fiance Delanie, her 2 sons who also called him Dad, and
their pug "MoMo".
Any prayers and financial donations are appreciated. All funds
will go toward Delanie's travel to Colorado to say goodbye, toward the
funeral costs and to Joaquin's son Roman. A memorial account has been
set up at Alaska USA.
Thank you for your generosity in our time of need. We really are
a humble family that loves our community and helps wherever we can. We
appreciate any support you can give.
If you wish to donate directly to me, Heather, please contact me
via Facebook. The contributions will still be accounted for here.
