In Loving Memory of Efraín Colon.
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear friend, brother, and unwavering warrior, Efraín Colon, who left this world on March 13, 2025, after a courageous battle with cancer. Efraín faced his illness with a strength and resilience that left all who knew him in awe.
From the moment he received his diagnosis, Efraín embraced the fight with a determination few possess. He was a man who anticipated his surgery with optimism, fully committed to doing whatever it took to reclaim his life and continue sharing his warmth, humor, and kindness with those he loved. His bravery was a testament to his character, his will to live, and his deep love for the people in his life.
Never in a million years did we think this day would come. We were with him every step of the way, lifting him up with prayers and hope. But today, our hearts are broken, knowing that despite all our collective strength, it wasn’t enough to keep him here.
Efraín was more than a friend—he was my brother…..family. His laughter, generosity, and unwavering loyalty were gifts to everyone blessed to know him. His love for life, even in the face of such a challenging journey, was truly inspirational. To say he will be missed feels inadequate because his absence leaves a void that can never be filled.
It was in our simplest moments, where laughter and love flowed effortlessly, that I will cherish forever. Those moments are now treasured memories etched into my soul, a testament to the pure and genuine bond we shared.
To those of us left behind, we hold onto the beautiful memories he gifted us, the lessons he taught us about courage and perseverance, and the deep love he shared with everyone he encountered. E’s spirit will forever remain in our hearts, guiding us through the pain and reminding us to live life as fully and fearlessly as he did.
Rest in power, E. Your fight is over, but your light will shine on in our hearts forever. I love you with all of my heart❤️
