Guadalupe Gabriel Cortés Valerio “Lupillo”, de 14 años, fue al cielo el 25 de mayo de 2024. Nació el 26 de abril de 2010 en Birmingham, Alabama, pero estába muy orgulloso de su herencia y tradiciones mexicanas. Era muy humilde y cariñoso con sus padres, hermanos, familiares y amigos. Sus mayores pasiones eran el amor por el fútbol y los videojuegos.   Le encantaba pasar tiempo y salir con sus amigos y compañeros de equipo para jugar fútbol. Él tenía grandes sueños de llegar a las grandes ligas de fútbol.   Siempre tenía una sonrisa en su dulce carita.
