While traveling to Puerto Plata, the driver of the car in which the priest was riding lost control of the vehicle, which tumbled down a cliff. His aunt and uncle, Petra Jimenez and Manuel Jerez, also died in the accident.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
