Allen, TX Shooting Victim Elio Cumana-Rivas

On that fateful Saturday, May 6, 2023, Elio Cumana-Rivas visited the Allen Outlet Mall in North Texas with friends. In all likeliness, he was at the mall shopping for a birthday gift to send to his daughter living in Colombia with her mother. Elio from Los Teques, Miranda, Venezuela is survived by his only child, his daughter Arianna Elizabeth Isturiz Cumana, who turned 6 on May 11, 2023. Elio is also survived by his father, Santos Emilio Cumana, siblings and his mentally ill mother under the care of his father. Elio, a working man that immigrated to the United States after sanctions, deeply devastated the Venezuelan economy, so he could work to financially support his daughter, father, and his ill mother, by sending her money for her care and medicines, died tragically on that day.

This GoFundMe will go to his daughter, Arianna Elizabeth Isturiz, for her upbringing, and father, Santos Emilio Cumana, to help with his mother’s care due to her illness. All help is deeply appreciated, please share this link with your family and friends.

We will be updating this page as we get more information, and when Elio's remains will be returned to Venezuela.

This GoFundMe is being done on behalf of the family of Elio Cumana -Rivas with full legal consent. 100% of all money will go directly to the family via LULAC's National office.

All for one, and one for all
