Stand with Gloria's Family in Their Grief

It is with heavy hearts that we share the tragic and sudden loss of my mom Gloria, a loving mother, sister, daughter, and friend. My mom was senselessly taken from us, she was murdered by my step dad Tomas, in an act of unimaginable violence.

She leaves behind 7 beautiful children, ages 8 to 24, who are now facing a future without our mother’s warmth, guidance, and unconditional love. My mom was more than just a mother — she was a light in her community. She uplifted and inspired countless women, reminding them of their worth, their strength, and their potential. She always said, “Women can do anything they set their minds to,” and she lived those words every day. Her courage, kindness, and determination touched the lives of everyone who knew her.

This tragedy has left our family devastated emotionally and financially. We are asking for your help to cover funeral and memorial expenses, and to ease the burden on my siblings and I as we try to navigate life in the wake of this loss. Any funds raised will go directly toward funeral costs and support for my siblings and I in the difficult months ahead.

No donation is too small. If you are unable to give, please share this page and keep my family in your thoughts and prayers. Your kindness, love, and support mean the world to us during this time of grief.

Thank you for standing with us as we honor my moms legacy and help us begin to heal.

With love and gratitude,

Family
