Francisco De La Torre, El Paso, TX— Francisco De La Torre, affectionately known as "Kiko," passed away on November 20, 2024, after a month-long battle in the ICU. His passing, at 4:06 p.m., came just after his daughter, Sarah De La Torre, had the chance to speak to him, offering comfort and love as he peacefully departed.
Francisco’s sudden illness began on October 25, when he was admitted to the ICU, and despite the efforts of medical professionals, he could not recover. His daughter, Sarah, expressed her deep sorrow and relief that he was no longer suffering. She shared the pain of having to arrange his funeral and fulfill his final wishes, which included a wooden casket and a return to his hometown in Loma Blanca, Mexico.
The community has shown its support for the family, as Sarah De La Torre has set up a fundraiser to help cover the costs of the funeral and transportation. As of now, $560 has been raised through donations from family and friends, including generous contributions from Mina Delatorre, Benito Reyes, Eduardo De-La-Torre, and others.
The funeral services are expected to take place during the first week of December, though the date is yet to be confirmed. The family is thankful for the outpouring of support and asks for continued prayers during this difficult time.
Our hearts go out to the De La Torre family as they navigate through this heartbreaking loss. We extend our deepest condolences to them and pray for peace and strength in the days ahead.
