Maria Aldapa: Strongest woman everyone knew

Maria Aldapa would have turned 91 this February. Unfortunately, her battle against covid-19 has ended. She passed away at 3:10am on January 1st, 2021.

She was an extremely strong woman who came to this country seeking a better life for her 7 kids, as a mother and a father, due to her being widowed. Not only did she bring her children here, but little by little she also brought as much of extended family that she was able to, this includes; her parents, siblings, nieces, nephews, grandchildren, and some family friends. Let’s just say her 2 bedroom apartment was full of even 21 people sleeping there at once until they got settled on their own. Inher life she suffered so many heartaches as she lost her husband at her kids’ young age. She then lost two children and a grandchild as well as suffered the death of a few of her siblings.

She was the rock of the family as she will always be loved andeven though she has passed, the memory of her will never die. 

Please help our family. The money that is raised will be used for the funeral cost as covid-19 has taken a toll on all our lives.
