Never Doubt the Little Seed You Left Behind: The Heartbreaking Message from El Montecito Shelter to Say Goodbye to Polish Riemersma

28 August 2026

The death of Eduardo Groh Riemersma, known as “El Polaco”, left a profound ache among those who for years stood by his efforts in rescuing and protecting animals. Hours after the news of his passing became public, from El Montecito de los Canichones, the shelter he founded and to which he devoted nearly two decades, they bid him farewell with an emotional message posted on social media.

The organization recalled its founder and leader with words of great affection, choosing a phrase that sums up the legacy he left behind through his work: “Never doubt the seed you left in every corner of this world.”

The Shelter’s Message to Bid Farewell to El Polaco

Through its social channels, El Montecito de los Canichones expressed their sorrow at the departure of the man who led the project for so many years.

“We are deeply saddened by this heartbreaking news,” begins the post published by the organization, which also noted that one of the last posts El Polaco shared had been posted shortly before his death.

Then, the shelter addressed its founder directly:

“May God keep him in heavenly glory. You will always be remembered in all our hearts, dear Polaco. Never doubt the seed you left in every corner of this world. Someday from heaven you will see the results of all your efforts. Rest in peace,” they expressed.

The words reflected not only the grief of the loss but also recognition of a mission that for years transcended the walls of the shelter and managed to involve thousands of people in animal protection.

El Polaco’s Last Post

The shelter’s message emphasized that one of the last posts Eduardo Riemersma shared before his death was linked, precisely, to the dogs who were part of his daily life.

In the images he was seen surrounded by the Montecito’s animals, a scene that illustrated the bond he had built with them over the years.
