Funeral expenses for DUI Placentia victims

Donation protected
It is with great sorrow and immeasurable pain that we reach out to ask for help for our wonderful mother, Erika Lopez and our family including blanca my niece . Erika was involved in a tragic collision when a drunk driver hit the church van she and her family were riding home in from prayer services. The crash resulted in the death of her 10 year old daughter Lucero Lopez and her husband Alberto Lopez, and left pregnant Erika and her son Anebel injured. The grief, loss, and heartache surrounding this incident is unfathomable. Alberto’s loss has not only left Erika without a husband and her children without a father, but he was also the family’s sole financial provider. While no amount of money can reunite this family, we would greatly appreciate your support to help with burial and transportation costs of decedents back to Guatemala, cost of care for her, her son and unborn child. While we cannot bring back their loved ones, please come together to help alleviate the financial burdens they are battling during this unimaginable time.

The family is concerned about being personally contacted.  In order to give them the space to grieve and privacy.  Any additional efforts to help the family  beyond the go fund me is appreciated and can be coordinated though the family’s Attorney: MICHAEL GHOZLAND of THE GHOZLAND LAW FIRM


Es con gran tristeza y dolor inconmensurable que nos acercamos para pedir ayuda para nuestra maravillosa madre, Erika López y nuestra familia. Erika estuvo involucrada en un trágico accidente de auto cuando un conductor ebrio golpeó la camioneta de la iglesia en la que ella y su familia viajaban a casa después de servicios de oración. El accidente dejó como resultado la muerte de su hija de 10 años, Lucero López y su esposo Alberto López, y dejó heridos a Erika embarazada y a su hijo Anebel. El dolor, la pérdida y la angustia que rodea este incidente es insondable. La pérdida de Alberto no solo ha dejado a Erika sin esposo y a sus hijos sin padre, sino que también él era el único sostén económico de la familia. Si bien ninguna cantidad de dinero puede reunir a esta familia, agradeceríamos mucho su apoyo para ayudar con los costos de entierro y transporte de los difuntos de regreso a Guatemala, el costo del cuidado de ella, su hijo y el niño por nacer. Si bien no podemos traer de vuelta a sus seres queridos, por favor únase para ayudar a aliviar las cargas financieras que están enfrentando durante este tiempo inimaginable.
