Esperanza Lynn Lagunes Aarstad our baby was born the morning of June 18th, 2012 in Sheridan, Wyoming to Julio and Kayla Lagunes. Esperanza passed away on Friday April 26th, 2019 surrounded by her, parents, grandparents, sisters, and family. 

Esperanza loved playing with her sisters,loved jamming out in the drums, and watching scooby-doo. Esperanza's passions were animals of all kinds, she loved cooking weather it was following therecipes or just playing in the ingredients. Esperanza was always laughing and playing. But most of the time you could find her snuggling her stuffed cat Libby and sucking her thumb.

Esperanza may have only been with us for 6 short years, but in those years she taught all of us what life was meant to be like. Being happy, laughing and smiling was an everyday thing for her. Not a day will go by that we will not forget her smile. 

Esperanza  is survived by her father Julio Lagunes-Rivera, her mother Kayla Lagunes-Rivera. Her sisters Esmeralda Lagunes-Aarstad, Sage Dieleman, Serenity Dieleman. Her grandparents Rowena andJohn Aarstad and Odilon Lagunes and Rufina Rivera and much more family.
