On December 27, 2019, the world lost a beautiful soul. Our dear Marleny Soleto Arauz passed away unexpectedly during her visit home to Bolivia, leaving behind her husband and 3 children, 5 grandchildren and many family members and friends.

Marleny was a beautiful, kind, caring mother, grandmother, wife and friend. Her smile would light up a room. Her gentleness and kindness were memorable. Her family and friends are devastated by the sudden loss of Marleny. 

We would greatly appreciate any and all generosity and support for the Soleto Arauz household, as well as your thoughts and prayers.  We are raising money to help pay for the cost of the funeral and help the family during this devastating time.

I am continuing to raise money for Oscar and Marco to help them with the funeral costs and get them back on their feet in the aftermath of Marleny's death. I will get the remaining funds to Bolivia by the end of Feb. I know that the funds will be used to pay all costs associated with burial and also will assist with some of the household expenses.
