doWho was Javier Quiroz Hernández?

Javier Quiroz Hernández, who was pronounced dead at the scene, was 32 years old and worked at the Mexican restaurant Hacienda Santa Teresa, located on Holland Street, where the accident took place. He was originally from Veracruz, Mexico.

In a post on its Facebook page, the establishment announced the Mexican’s death in Canada, remembering Javier as “a dear friend” who was always ready to help with whatever was needed.

If we needed someone to fetch the meat from the butcher, he would. If we had any issues with our plumbing or renovations, he was there to help. If we needed an extra server to help us out on a busy night, he would. Always with a smile and jokes.

Javier’s mother also works in the kitchen of the same company and due to the news she had to be hospitalized, according to the restaurant administration.

Sadly, his death leaves a young family unprotected in Mexico.
