Although his ministry has expanded across three continents and he has become a household name among Evangelical Christian families in Latin America, he preferred a humble life, reportedly living in the same house he owned and in the same conditions before his ministry began. In 2009, he suffered a debilitating [[stroke]] that limited his speech capabilities, and he retired from public preaching.<ref name="Vocero Death">[http://www.vocero.com/muere-yiye-avila/ ''Muere Yiye Ávila''], [[El Vocero]], June 28, 2013, retrieved June 28, 2013</ref> On June 28, 2013, Yiye Ávila died from cardiac arrest at the age of 87.
