Our baby boy, Rafael James Carlos Escobar, went to be with his Nanny, Grandpa Red, Great-Grandma, Mato, and Papa Miguel in Heaven on Monday, August 17 at 11:07 PM. He went to sleep peacefully with his Mommy and Daddy in bed with him, with Grandma Sherrie looking on.
A celebration of his life and lessons will be scheduled soon.
Thank you so much for your continued love and support through his struggle and our fight for his life. He felt it each and every day, as did we.
