It is with great sadness that I announce the sudden and unexpected passing of my beloved brother James. Many of you might remember him from our original location of Viva Mercado’s on Flamingo & Jones. James was an integral part of the business and our family. He will be missed immensely. If you are able, our family would greatly appreciate any donations at this time to cover funeral expenses.
Thank you,
Carolina Mercado/Viva Mercado’s
