I was visiting the Zipolite Group page today https://www.facebook.com/groups/5258919189/ and read very sad news. My Spanish is not the best but it is my understanding that Aquila's home burned down. His family and him are fine but they lost everything. See note below.
Please let's spread the word and help out. Aquila has saved MANY lives in Zipolite and he has a wonderful little family with beautiful children. Let's help if you can. Gracias.
Here's is the Bing Translation

Below are little clips of video that I made a few year ago of Aquila and another lifeguard (Carlos?) rescuing someone who went out to far. This first on is of him playing in the water when we first arrived last fall.
