My name is Maria and I’m Michelle’s oldest sister of four girls. It’s both an honor and a heartbreak to speak about Michelle.

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Michelle “Martinez” Garcia, who left us far too soon.
Michelle was a beloved daughter, sister, and most importantly, a devoted mother to her three beautiful children, Jordan, 20 years old, Jayden, 14 years old, and 11 year old Ariyanah.
Michelle’s sudden passing has left our family and loved ones devastated, and her children facing a future without their mother’s love and guidance. During this unimaginable time, we want to come together as family and friends to support them.
This GoFundMe has been created to help cover funeral and memorial service costs, as well as to provide financial support for Michelle’s children as they navigate the difficult days ahead.
Every donation, no matter how big or small, will make a difference in honoring Michelle’s memory and ensuring her children have the care and stability they need.
We ask for your thoughts, prayers, and kindness as we come together to celebrate Michelle’s life and support her children.
In honor of Michelle, we invite you to celebrate her memory in the little ways she would have loved. Create arts and crafts with your children. Eat some sushi, enjoy a good plate of Mexican food, turn up the gospel and country music she cherished, and take in the simple beauty of sunflowers. Michelle also loved being outdoors — fishing, camping, and finding peace in nature. These were the things that brought her joy, and through them, we can carry a piece of her spirit with us.
All funds raised will go directly toward funeral expenses and to help provide for Michelle’s children.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your generosity and compassion.
With all our love and gratefulness,
Carmen Martinez, Maria Quiroz, Maricella Martinez, Melissa Martinez ♥️
