Hello, my name is Paloma Rodriguez, and I truly appreciate you taking a moment to read my aunt Joans story. My family and I have been blindsided by the loss of our family member due to cardiac arrest.

Any money donated will be used to secure the funeral and memorial.

Any amount you're willing to contribute is so greatly appreciated, and if you aren't able to contribute money at this time, a share with your friends and family would mean the world to us as well.

Joan was a a great mother to her 3 kids and an even better grandmother to her 2 granddaughters.

We're raising funds because the family has had a tough year with many unplanned expenses cropping up - including funeral, memorial, and a few other things.

All donations will go directly to the Alexsandra Ortiz bank account so it can be used immediately towards funeral and expenses for Joans children.

If you aren't able to donate at this time, please pass this along to other people in our community. Thank you!
