Leandro 'Leo" Galvez

Leandro “Leo” Galvez was born on May 3, 2022—a brave little lion whose courage, resilience, and joyful spirit touched lives around the world. Though only with us for three short years, Leo made a lasting impact. His fierce heart, gentle soul, and unforgettable eyes left an imprint on everyone he met. His smile could light up the darkest room, and his presence brought comfort, strength, and joy.

Leo embraced life in his own unique way. He found happiness in rolling around the house with Ms. Rachel playing in the background, watching Bluey , going on walks, and. Above all, he loved being close to his parents—especially snuggling in the arms of his amazing mom, Cinthia and dad, Luis. The warmth of his family was his favorite place to be.

Leo will always be remembered with love by his devoted parents, Luis and Cinthia Galvez; his grandmothers, Maria Galvez and Mirna Acosta; his aunts and uncles. Though his time here was brief, Leo’s life was full of love, laughter, and deep connection. His memory will forever live in the hearts of all who knew and cherished him.

The family extends their deepest gratitude to Riley Children’s Hospital and Leo’s exceptional team of specialists; to Tendercare Home Services; to his incredible nurses and therapists —Ashley L, Allison R, Caroline W, Aaron, Nicole G, Quinn C, Nicole R, Heather L, Kaity W, Brittine M, Rachel D, Chelsea L, and Lynn J—for their unwavering compassion, care, and dedication. The family also wishes to thank everyone who has lifted them up in prayer and offered their support during this incredibly difficult time.

To celebrate Leo’s life, the family invites those attending his service to wear shades of blue or white, in honor of his bright and beautiful spirit.

Leo will forever be remembered for his strength, his radiant smile, and the courage he showed each and every day. His legacy is one of love, and he will continue to live on in every heart he touched.
