In Loving Memory of Maria Carias,

It is with heavy hearts that we share the sudden and unexpected passing of our beloved Maria aka Chita a cherished grandmother, mother, sister, tía, and dear friend. Her passing has left an unimaginable void in our lives, but we are comforted by the memories of the love and light she brought to everyone around her.

Maria was the kind of woman whose smile could brighten any room. She was full of joy, laughter, and warmth — always the life of the gathering, whether it was a simple family dinner or a big celebration. She loved deeply and wholeheartedly, and her happiest moments were spent surrounded by the people she loved most: her family and friends.

She gave selflessly, listened intently, and loved unconditionally. Her presence was a gift, and her absence is deeply felt.

As we prepare to honor her life and say our goodbyes, we are reaching out to our community for support. Any contributions will go toward helping our family with funeral and memorial expenses, and ensuring we can give Maria the beautiful farewell she deserves.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your love, support, and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.
