Emilio Piña Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Brandon G. Thompson Funeral Home - Hammond on Jan. 25, 2026.
Emilio, age 43, passed away on Saturday, January 24, 2026. He was a resident of Hammond, LA. Emilio was a man who showed his love through action. Every day of hard work was done with one purpose in mind, giving his children a better life and making sure his family was taken care of. Being a provider wasn't just his responsibility; it was his pride. When Emilio wasn't working, he found happiness in the simple things he loved most, fishing, where he could slow down and enjoy the quiet, and taking rides in his truck, just driving with no real destination. He will be remembered for his strong work ethic and his deep love for his family. Emilio's legacy lives on in his children and the life he worked so hard to build for them.

He is survived by his daughters, Anna Maldonado, Emily Maldonado, Ximena Maldonado, Bellamarie Maldonado Piña; parents, Aurelia Piña Chombo and J. Santos Maldonado Colin; and sisters, Herlinda Maldonado Piña (Juan Rodriguez), Ma. Consepcion Maldonado Piña, Claudia Maldonado Piña, Gabriela Maldonado Piña, Hortencia Maldonado Piña, and Raquel Maldonado Piña.

Emilio is preceded in death by his brother, Jorge Maldonado Piña.

Relatives and friends of the family are invited to attend the visitation at Brandon G. Thompson Funeral Home at 12012 Hwy 190 W. Hammond, LA 70401 on Friday, January 30, 2026 from 4:00 p.m. until the funeral service at 6:00 p.m.

Emilio, de 43 años, falleció el sábado 24 de enero de 2026. Era residente de Hammond, Luisiana. Emilio fue un hombre que demostraba su amor a través de sus acciones. Cada día de trabajo duro tenía un solo propósito: brindarles a sus hijas una vida mejor y asegurarse de que su familia estuviera bien cuidada. Ser proveedor no era solo su responsabilidad; era su orgullo.

Cuando Emilio no estaba trabajando, encontraba felicidad en las cosas simples que más amaba: la pesca, donde podía ir más despacio y disfrutar de la tranquilidad, y salir a manejar en su camioneta, simplemente conduciendo sin un destino en particular.

Será recordado por su fuerte ética de trabajo y su profundo amor por su familia. El legado de Emilio vive en sus hijas y en la vida que trabajó incansablemente para construir para ellas.

Le sobreviven sus hijas: Anna Maldonado, Emily Maldonado, Ximena Maldonado y Bellamarie Maldonado Pina; sus padres: Aurelia Pina Chombo y J. Santos Maldonado Colin; y sus hermanas: Herlinda Maldonado Pina (Juan Rodríguez), Ma. Consepción Maldonado Pina, Claudia Maldonado Pina, Gabriela Maldonado Pina, Hortencia Maldonado Pina y Raquel Maldonado Pina.

Emilio fue precedido en la muerte por su hermano, Jorge Maldonado Pina.

Se invita a los familiares y amigos de la familia a asistir al velorio en la funeraria Brandon G. Thompson, ubicada en 12012 Hwy 190 W., Hammond, LA 70401, el viernes 30 de enero de 2026, de 4:00 p.m. a 6:00 p.m., hora en que comenzará el servicio fúnebre.
