Gerald Antonio Barrera Villavicencio
“They took away a piece of my heart.”
Murdered on July 8, 2018, in Jinotepe
Gerald Antonio Barrera Villavicencio was from Jinotepe, Carazo. His mother died when he was only three years old, and his father abandoned him. He and his brother were raised by his aunt Alisseth Barrera Reyes, who was like his real mother. He was very attached to her and loved her. He loved to celebrate her birthdays and see her happy. He worked as a bricklayer, but life brought him new opportunities and he discovered that he was talented as a salesman.
He sold eggs and plastic bags. In 2018, he worked as a sales executive for a Colombian company that distributed feed for animals. Because of his great commitment to his work, he was given a vehicle for getting around. He was married to Karen Mayela Martínez, and they had two children, a 3-year-old daughter and an 8-month-old baby boy, who were his life. “They took away a piece of my heart, but I am proud of him, because he struggled and gave his life for us. He was a great son, a great father, a hard-working man,” declared Alisseth during an event honoring him.
