On October 17, 2025, our beloved Christian Rangel and his girlfriend, Bianca Romero, were taken from us. Their passing has left our family heartbroken and devastated.

Christian and Bianca were killed by an intoxicated driver who, due to being under the influence of alcohol, was speeding and rear-ended their Nissan, causing the car to immediately catch fire, leaving Christian and Bianca trapped inside the burning vehicle.

Christian was an incredible boy; kind, honest, respectful, intelligent, hard-working, helpful, noble, a son, a friend, a brother, with a big heart; he never hurt anyone and always worked very hard.

Christian and Bianca didn’t deserve what happened to them. They were so young and full of dreams. They were planning to open a coffee shop and start a family together.

A "reckless" homicide that leaves us feeling a great void and filled with pain, yearning for justice for them, for those who have died at the hands of drunk drivers, and to help prevent this from happening again.

As we go through this painful time, we ask for your support and help to cover Christian's memorial and funeral expenses. The person responsible didn't have vehicle insurance and isn't responsible for the expenses; she's only handling her criminal case.

Any support (prayers, messages of support, financial support, and compassion) you can give means a lot to us.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
