RIP Hermano Luis Ortiz

"This man loves frat so much that he has his Gold shirt w/ letters hanging in his room [hospital room] and his mom said last night that he will be buried w/ his shirt on." - Felix Q.

Today, I write this post with a heavy heart. My brotherhood, La Unidad Latina, Lambda Upsilon Lambda Fraternity, Incorporated, has lost one of its own. Hermano Luis Ortiz (Spring 1995 - Pi Chapter) passed away this morning. Though I never knew the man personally, I was saddened by this news. He not only was a member of my organization, he was a brother - my brother. He was family. We are a brotherhood that shares strong bonds amongst us, even if we only interacted once in our lives. This is evident by the amount of brothers saddened and shocked by the news of our fallen knight. It is not a time to mourn though, and instead we will celebrate the life of our brother.

Luis, you lived with the motto of our brotherhood - Para Siempre -in your heart everyday of your life. For that reason, your memory will live on, Para Siempre.

Rest in Peace Hermano Luis...La Unidad Para Siempre....
