We are saddened to report the passing of Mario de Leon, a Pura Vida interpreter beloved by many of our Guatemala work team members. Shortly after finishing work with our Salida / Newnan team in June, Mario went into the hospital with vision problems. On June 30, 2025 he ended up having a 5-centimeter brain tumor removed. Unfortunately, he never recovered. Funeral services were held last week.
With the help of concerned donors, we have sent a substantial donation to Mario’s family to help offset verified costs. The family is very appreciative. Nevertheless, we will greatly miss Mario.
