In Loving Memory of Our Son, Víctor

Our beloved Víctor was our son, our brother, our grandson, our uncle, and a cherished friend. Most of all, he was our child—a precious part of our family who will always hold a place in our hearts.

From the time Víctor was a little boy, he loved adventure. Some of our favorite memories are of him riding dirt bikes at Hollister Hills with his dad, brother, and sister. He loved being outdoors, being with his family, and making memories together. He also enjoyed kickboxing at Hollister MSK and was a young wrestler.

Víctor attended Spring Grove School in Hollister and later attended Hollister High School. While at Hollister High School, he participated in a peer class where he had the opportunity to spend time with and help care for younger children. Seeing his caring side and the way he interacted with those children was something we will always remember.

Víctor was also a hard worker. He worked at McDonald’s, where his beautiful smile became something people knew him for. He was a multitask employee who took pride in learning and doing his job.

And then there were cars—one of Víctor’s greatest passions. He loved cars and everything about them. He especially enjoyed his mechanic class at Hollister High School, where he could learn about something he truly loved. He enjoyed working with his hands and learning how things worked.

Some of our most precious memories with Víctor are the simple ones: fishing with his dad and siblings, riding dirt bikes, spending time together as a family, talking about cars, watching him learn new things, seeing his smile, and simply having him with us.

Those are the memories we hold onto now.

On January 14, 2025, our son Víctor left this world unexpectedly, shortly before his 18th birthday. There are no words that can truly describe the emptiness his absence has left in our family. We miss him in the everyday moments and in all the moments we wish he could still be here to experience with us.

We wish we could see his smile again, hear his voice, watch him work on a car, go fishing with him, or simply sit beside him. We would give anything for one more day with our son.

But as his mom and dad, we choose to hold onto our faith and the hope that this separation is not forever. We believe God has Víctor in His hands, and we hold onto the promise that one day God will wipe away every tear and there will be no more death, sorrow, crying, or pain.

Víctor, our son, we want you to know that you were deeply loved, you are deeply missed, and you will never be forgotten.

Your life mattered to us.

Your smile mattered to us.

Your dreams mattered to us.

Every memory of you matters to us.

We will carry you in our hearts for the rest of our lives.

Until the day God allows us to see you again, we will continue to love you, speak your name, and remember the beautiful young man you were.Forever our son.Forever our family.Forever loved.Love, Mom and Dad
