Help Us Lay Christian Rivas to Rest

It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we share the unexpected passing of our beloved Christian Rivas— a devoted wife, loving mother, daughter, cherished sister, and dear sister-in-law.

After a long and courageous battle with chronic illness, Christian faced complications while awaiting a life-saving transplant. Her family held onto hope until the very end, believing she would receive the miracle she so deeply deserved. Unfortunately, she passed away suddenly, leaving behind her devoted husband, Sam, and their three children — Galilea, Rubi , and Alexander.

Chris was the heart of her family. Her strength, love, and unwavering spirit touched everyone she met. Her husband had prepared as best he could, believing she would recover — and while many of the funeral arrangements were in place, the sudden turn has left the family needing help with remaining funeral and burial expenses.

We are asking for your support to help give Chris the beautiful, peaceful farewell she deserves. Any amount — no matter how small — will make a meaningful difference during this incredibly difficult time.

Your generosity, prayers, and kindness mean more than words can express. Please consider donating or sharing this with others who may want to help.

Thank you for standing with this family in love and support.

With gratitude,
