“Nito's departure has cast a shadow over our lives, but we choose to remember him not with sorrow, but with gratitude for the joy, warmth, and love he brought into our world and the community. His legacy of compassion, kindness, and infectious laughter will forever resonate in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to share in his journey.
Nito is survived by his loving parents Juan Felipe and Sylvia Rivera Longinos, brothers Cesar (Jane Garcia-Deal) and Marco (Rachel) Longinos, nieces (Alessandra, Caidance, and Faryn), Bo Longinos (man’s best friend, dog), cousins, and a vast community of friends who considered him family. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to the American Cancer Society, a cause near and dear to his heart.
During this difficult time, let us draw strength from the memories we shared with Nito and the impact he had on each of our lives. As we gather to say our final goodbyes, let us celebrate a life well-lived and a soul that touched the lives of many.
May Nito find eternal peace, and may his memory continue to be a source of comfort and inspiration to us all.
