Hello, my name is Katya Zepeda, a childhood friend of Yaneth, Esmeralda's mom. Esmeralda gained her angel wings on September 20th 2021.

With the permission of the family I wanted to create this fundraiser to help the family through this tragic loss.

Esmeralda was a strong, beautiful soul that left us too soon. She touched so many lives with her smile and sassy personality. She was smart, hard working and wise beyond her years. She cared deeply for her close friends and family.

As the family grieves I wanted them to feel the support of our community to help ease the financial stress they will encounter. Please share this far and wide and if you're able to donate, any amount you give will be greatly appreciated.

The family extends their appreciation to everyone that has reached out and offered their support. The family has asked for any fundraising efforts to be directed to me so they can focus on family. This is the only GoFundMe account the family has authorized.
