Con profunda tristeza, compartimos el fallecimiento de nuestro querido padre, Asunción Escobar, quien partió en su hogar rodeado de su esposa, hijos, nietos, familiares y amigos. Originario de Lislique, departamento de La Unión, El Salvador, nació el 1 de enero de 1950, siendo hijo de Ambrosio Alfaro y Cornelia Escobar. En su juventud, se dedicó al buceo y la pesca. Emigró a los Estados Unidos en 1979 y se estableció en Washington D.C. Con el tiempo, logró traer a su esposa e hijo mayor, y su meta fue traerlos todos a este pais, cual lo cumplio.
Fue un hombre trabajador, honrado, luchador y profundamente dedicado a su familia. Disfrutaba de la compañía de sus mascotas y uno de sus pasatiempos favoritos era tocar la guitarra, aunque lo que más valoraba era reunirse con sus hijos. Se esforzó incansablemente, trabajando hasta en dos o tres empleos, para brindar un hogar lleno de amor y estabilidad. Siempre fue una persona amigable, dispuesto a tender una mano a quien lo necesitara y comprometido con hacer el bien.
Compartió 55 años con su compañera de vida Julia Fuentes, con quien tuvo 11 hijos, de los cuales sobreviven 8. Toda su vida fue dedicada a su familia, hasta su último momento. Su legado de amor, sacrificio y unión familiar vivirá siempre en nuestros corazones.
