In loving memory of the beautiful Andrea Alberico

I make this gofundme in a time of devastation and my overwhelming desire to help the Alberico family in any way that I can. Andrea's passing was unexpected and as her friend, I feel it's my responsibility to step up and help in any way that I can to make sure that the family is financially prepared for the coming expenses that no one is ever really ready for. I know money is tight for many people especially now as people have lost their jobs or income because of the pandemic. However, any help is appreciated. Andrea was a beautiful young woman who deserves a beautiful memorial and final resting place for family and friends to visit.  Our beloved Andrea recently passed on October 3, 2020.  Andrea was a loving sister, mother, friend, aunt and daughter who touched the lives of those around her. She leaves behind Gary Alberico (Loving father), Tanya Alberico (Loving mother), Antonio (Her amazing son) Briella (Her beautiful young daughter) Gary Alberico (Loving big brother) Brad (Boyfriend of 10+ years) Victoria Alberico & Adalynn Alberico (Andrea's precious nieces) and their lovely mother Makenzie Erods. Andrea dedicated her life to her family and friends and always wanted to make the people around her happy. She had an amazing sense of style and enjoyed doing makeup and hair. She was known for being generous and always put the needs of others before her own. Andrea struggled with addiction, and was ultimately what took her life. However, she was strong and never stopped working on her recovery. I want to mention that the resources for those struggling with addiction are just not good enough at this time, although they have gotten better over the years. Andrea had the people that cared and would do anything for her, but they felt powerless without the adequate treatment and the much needed professional guidance. Andrea has many friends and her personality was humorous and kind. She always wanted to swim with the dolphins, and now she's flying with the angels. Those were the words of her father through tears as he looked at pictures of Andrea this morning.  We are all devastated by Andrea's loss and were not prepared for the high cost of a funeral service. We want to give Andrea the memorial that she deserves, to honor her memory and say our last goodbyes. I am currently asking for donations to help cover the cost of Andreas funeral. We are hopeful to reach anywhere up to $10,000 within the next couple weeks, in order to be able to afford the funeral service and for a proper burial that would make Andrea proud.

Thank you so much for stopping by and showing your respect. I am forever grateful for your support. Gary Alberico & Amanda Greene
