My precious baby, Isela, was just 5 years old. She loved gymnastics, and that passion was only surpassed by her love for singing. But what truly made Isela special was her incredible voice, both in song and in her unwavering determination. She had a unique gift of always speaking her mind and expressing herself fearlessly.

Isela touched the hearts of everyone she met, leaving an indelible mark on their lives. Her bright spirit and strong-willed personality were a testament to the incredible child she was and how much I loved her.

On Halloween 2023, I was driving back from Isela's doctor's appointment in Duluth, Minnesota when I came across snow and icy conditions. The car lost control, skidded off the road, and flipped multiple times before coming to a stop. Tragically, Isela lost her life instantly.

My youngest daughter, Sesi, just 2 years old, and I managed to survive with minimal injuries. Our car was totaled, leaving us in need of a new vehicle. In addition to Isela’s memorial cost, we are faced with the added expenses of flights for myself and my remaining children. The total amount I'm requesting will help bring Isela home to Chicago and cover the expenses associated with her home-going and memorial service.

Your support during this difficult time is greatly appreciated. Isela's memory will forever be in our hearts, and your kindness will help us honor her in the most meaningful way.

Thank you for being a part of Isela's journey.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Evian
