Welcome to the CaringBridge website for Vongell Lugo. We have set this up as the central hub of information for friends and family to keep up to date with everything going on with the memorial, wake and funeral.

Vongell was a beloved son, brother, uncle, friend, and coworker. He was a kind soul, the center of the party, and a beacon of light that made an impact on everyone he came into contact with. His life was taken far too soon by a senseless and disturbing act of violence. This is a tragedy, and everyone in his life is heartbroken. Please feel free to leave comments, and any pictures you may have of Vongell. These will be cherished by his family. Below, you will find information regarding the upcoming services.
