January 30th, my family received tragic news that has left us all in disbelief. The beautiful and amazing angels you see pictured lost their lives. Their home caught fire and unfortunately they were not able to escape.

My cousin Lydia Rebecca Aponte was a beautiful and strong mother to these 3 wonderful babies. We grew up together in a tightly knit family and she was the big sister I had always wanted. She blessed the world with Makayla, Isaiah, and Aiden and they were the light of our lives. All of them were so incredibly smart and talented little kids. They inspired myself and my family in ways we never imagined. 

My family is looking to raise funds in order to get them moved from Ohio back here to Florida and give them the proper arrangements they deserve. Anything helps and we will forever be grateful for it. We are deeply saddened by this loss and our lives are forever changed. Please help my family and use this is a place to share thoughts and memories of these amazing and deeply loved human beings.
