Donate in loving memory of Shante Beltran

On the morning of New Years day, January 1st...Shante Beltran tragically and unexpectedly passed away at 38 years old. We definitely did not expect, nor did we want 2024 to start this way.

Although this was unexpected and we tragically lost her, Shante Beltran had end stage kidney and heart failure, as well as multiple amputations at such a young age. She suffered these last couple of months so much but she fought the good fight and still lived life having fun and laughing any chance she could.

In February of 2022 we also lost BOTH our parents to COVID a day apart and 6 months prior to that we also lost our oldest brother to COVID as well. And now we lost Shante, who was our "baby" sister. Shante not only dealt with health issues, but losing both our parents 1 day apart took a huge toll on her and she cried for them every day.

As you can imagine, our family feels we are living in a nightmare. Not only are we grieving but on top of that we are overwhelmed with trying to come up with the funds for our "baby" sister who is our 4th family member we have had to bury in such a short amount of time. Due to Shante's pre existing terminal diseases, she was not eligible for life insurance which means we have to come up with the funds.

Shante was so young, and should have lived a long life but God had other plans. But she was a warrior and there were many days her body failed her and she wanted to give up but she still kept pushing. She believed that Jesus would heal her whether it was here on earth or when He took her home and gave her a new body, free from pain and suffering. She is now walking in heaven, hand in hand with her parents who she longed to be with every day. No longer does she have to do dialysis, be admitted in hospitals, have the ambulance pick her up every other week or worry about having another amputation. She is free and living in paradise and I'm sure she is asking God a million questions like she said she was going to do.

Although we are greatly sad, we remember Shante for having a contagious laugh. For her sense of humor and making us laugh until our stomach hurts. For her love that she gave so freely to everyone, and that she was there for you whenever you needed her. She was an amazing sister, auntie, cousin, niece, friend etc. but most of all she was a soldier in the army of the Lord and she has fought the good fight and won her race!

Shante had a love for God that was so deep, and that is where she drew her strength from to keep going. She LOVED church and singing/worshipping the Lord. Reading her bible. Jesus changed her life and she willingly lived for Him. She LOVED music, especially Christian rap (Kingdom Muzic) as well as Gospel music, and Christian Spanish songs. She is now singing in the angels choir.

Shante we LOVE you so much and will miss you. But we will see you again! May the force be with you and tell Mom and Dad we miss them too.
