My loving and caring grandmother, Cristina Cervantes-Ochoa, passed away on Tuesday, February 11th. My family and I are deeply saddened by her loss and are seeking help to cover her funeral costs.

Cristina immigrated to the U.S. from Mexico in the late 1980s, bringing my dad in search of a better life. They first settled in downtown Los Angeles before moving to Monterey Park shortly after I was born.

From the moment I came into this world, my grandmother took care of me with so much love. She always made sure I had everything I needed—whether it was a hot meal, clean clothes, or picking me up from school. She extended that same care to many children in our family, often babysitting me and my cousins.

Cristina came from humble beginnings but helped build a strong foundation for our family, allowing many of us to thrive. She was the matriarch of our family and her loss leaves a deep void in our hearts.

Any contribution to help give her a loving and respectful farewell would mean the world to us. We appreciate your support during this difficult time.
