Luis Vielma Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jun. 12, 2016.
Luis Vielma, 22, was killed in the shooting at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida. A student at Seminole State College, where he studied Emergency Medical Services, he also worked at Universal Orlando Resort on the Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride.

"Harry Potter" author J.K. Rowling was among those who remembered Vielma: "Luis Vielma worked on the Harry Potter ride at Universal," Rowling wrote. "He was 22 years old. I can't stop crying. #Orlando" A friend and coworker called Vielma "…a true friend. A funny, sweet, nerdy guy without a mean side. He just wanted to make people smile."

It will be the little things
that you will remember,
the quiet moments,
the smiles, the laughter.
And although it may seem
hard right now,
it will be the memories
of these little things
that help to push
away the pain
and bring the smiles
back again.

The last time my daughters and I were at Universal I talked with Luis before we rode the ride and he made a joke (I wish I remembered), but he was such a friendly young man. As a former team member I know Universal is our family. We spend time together both at work and when we are off. Please know that Luis will be missed terribly but his magic will always be remembered.
