Our hearts are broken over the tragic loss of Brenda Ochoa-Mendoza, age 27, and her unborn daughter, Aria Tolbert. Those that were lucky enough to know Brenda knew her as a shining light, caring, and always one to put others first. Brenda was an amazing person who touched all our lives with her positivity and unconditional love.

She is survived by her husband, parents, brother, sister, and 1-year-old daughter.

The sudden loss has brought some unexpected expenses for Brenda’s family. Any donation will be greatly appreciated. All proceeds will go towards funeral expenses and her 1-year-old daughter’s future.
