In Loving Memory of Orlando Reyes Sr.

On April 1, 2026, we lost a truly unforgettable soul, Orlando Reyes Sr., after complications from cancer. He was 56 years old.

Orlando was the kind of person you don’t just meet… you remember. His energy filled a room. His laughter was contagious. His presence made people feel seen, valued, and cared for. Whether you knew him personally or simply crossed paths with him, you felt his warmth.

He is survived by his loving mother, his daughter Yari and her husband Angel, his son Orlando Jr., and his devoted sister Vanessa Reyes. He was also a proud grandfather to four beautiful boys who brought him endless joy and purpose.

To so many, Orlando was more than a friend. He was a confidant, a cheerleader, a voice of truth, and often the one who brought laughter when it was needed most. He had a rare way of making people feel like family. His Puerto Rican roots, his charisma, and his genuine spirit left a lasting imprint on everyone lucky enough to know him.

Orlando gave so much of himself to others. Now, we have the opportunity to give back.

This fundraiser is to support his sister, Vanessa, with the remaining medical expenses and cremation arrangements during this incredibly difficult time. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help ease the financial burden and allow the family to focus on honoring his life and legacy.

If you are unable to give, please consider sharing this page and keeping his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Orlando’s legacy is one of love, loyalty, and connection. That doesn’t end here… it lives on in all of us who carry his memory forward.

Thank you for being part of that. ❤️
