Unfortunately, on April 8, 2025, we lost our beloved mother, Esperanza Rivera, after a long battle with end-stage renal disease. Ten years to be exact. Ten years she kept it pushing; what a warrior she was. Esperanza was always so full of love and life, so full of energy. She always cared deeply for everyone as if they were her family. Her kids, husband, her brothers, sister, nieces, nephews, in-laws, church members, pastors, pets, neighbors, our friends—she loved so, so much.

We are saddened by her loss and pray that God gives us the strength and peace to get through this pain and tough time. We know she is no longer in pain and doesn’t have to suffer anymore. She went ahead and met up with our Lord and Savior.

We are asking for help to fulfill her wishes of how she wanted to be laid to rest. Please, anything you can do will help us so much. Thank you for the continued support for our family
