In loving memory of Gregorio Jillian Lizama Tenorio Jr., a beloved son, brother, nephew, cousin, and friend, affectionately known as "Labuchu Boy" and "Jun," we are reaching out to honor a life that was tragically cut short but lived with immense bravery and kindness.
On January 1, 2026, Gregorio, or as he fondly went by, "Bam Bam the Battleram," displayed the courage that defined his spirit as he intervened in an assault on a woman he didn't know, losing his life to a gunshot wound. His selfless act of speaks volumes of the love and protection he offered not just to those he knew, but to strangers as well.
We are raising funds to ensure that his legacy of courage and kindness continues to inspire. Donations will be used to cover the costs of his memorial service, where friends and family can gather to celebrate the life and sacrifice of Jun. Any remaining funds will be divided among his nieces and nephews, as he did not have children of his own.
Your contribution, no matter the size, will help us honor the brave and loving soul that was Gregorio.
For those interested in attending or viewing the celebration of his life, service and memorial details will be shared soon. Feel free to contact us for more information.
Thank you for your support and generosity in preserving the memory of our cherished Labuchu Boy.
