Everett, WA
It is with profound sorrow that we share the heartbreaking news of the passing of Emiliano “Emmy” Muñoz, a bright and spirited 13-year-old from Everett, Washington. Emmy tragically lost their life following an accident while riding an electric bike—a sudden loss that has shaken not only their family but the wider community that had the privilege of knowing them.
Emmy was a treasured student at Explorer Middle School, where they were known for their warm heart, vibrant energy, and unique ability to bring joy to those around them. Their presence in the classroom, the hallways, and among their peers left an indelible mark. Emmy’s teachers often spoke of their curiosity, kindness, and the quiet strength with which they approached each day. Classmates remember Emmy as someone who could turn an ordinary moment into something memorable—always willing to share a laugh, lend a helping hand, or simply listen when someone needed a friend.
Beyond school, Emmy was a beloved sibling, child, and friend. To their family, Emmy was a radiant light—full of life, love, and endless potential. Their laughter filled rooms, their creativity inspired those around them, and their gentle spirit provided comfort in times of hardship. Whether riding their bike through the neighborhood or playing with friends, Emmy embodied a youthful freedom and innocence that is both beautiful and painful to remember in the wake of such a devastating tragedy.
The Everett community has come together to honor Emmy’s memory and to support the Muñoz family during this unimaginable time. A memorial has been established as a place for those who loved Emmy to gather, reflect, and share stories that celebrate their life. Flowers, messages, and tokens of remembrance now surround the space—a testament to how deeply Emmy touched the lives of so many in such a short time.
In these moments of grief, we hold Emmy’s family, friends, and teachers close in our thoughts. We recognize that there are no words that can fully ease the pain of such a profound loss, but we hope that the outpouring of love from the community offers some measure of comfort.
Emiliano “Emmy” Muñoz’s legacy lives on in the hearts of everyone who knew them. Though their time here was far too brief, the joy, love, and kindness they shared will continue to ripple through the lives they touched. May their memory be a blessing and a guiding light in the days to come.
With deepest sympathy and love,
The Everett and Explorer Middle School Community
