Remembering Jalene Ailany Brown

On the evening of July 22, 2025, our hearts were shattered when the beloved Cruz and Brown family was struck by unimaginable grief. Their treasured daughter and sister, Jalene Ailany Brown was lost in a tragic collision. Now, the Cruz and Brown family is facing the heavy burden of funeral and memorial expenses, all while grappling with incomprehensible heartbreak.

Jalene was a kind, vibrant young woman. She brightened every room with her smile and funny spirit. As a daughter and sister, Jalene was their sunshine. Her bond with her family was unbreakable—built on trust, love, and countless memories that will now live on in their hearts.

In her memory, Ana Barbalho, a friend of Julianna Cruz who was Jalene’s sister wants to honor her by spreading kindness and compassion—just as she always did. Your generosity can provide Sixmarie Rodriguez and their family the stability to focus on what matters—honoring Jalene’s beautiful life and navigating each day ahead with dignity and love.
