*Update*
To all of my fellow friends and loved ones,
With great pain I, Abner Balderas, inform you that in the early hours of February 17th, 2026 Genesis Balderas (Genny or Gen to those close to her) passed away at the young age of 34. She passed away suddenly in what is assumed her sleep. She was a beloved mother, sister and daughter.
She leaves behind her son, Jesse; her siblings-Erendira, Julio, me, & Edna. As well as her parents, Maria and Jose Luis Balderas.
You have a right to know as I type this and ask for your financial help. Genesis towards the final months leading up to her death was sick and couldn't be helped by conventional methods anymore. She was in emotional and physical pain that no doctor or loved one could remedy. In the end, her body and mind were unable to hold onto the living plane, but I know now she's at peace and is no longer suffering.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I humbly ask you, as a brother and friend, whatever little bit you can help will go a long way.
From the bottom of our hearts,
The Balderas Family
p.s. we are still in the process of finalizing plans for the funeral and burial service, but we will update the page once they are. thank you.
