Whitney Grogan-Vega

It saddens me to have to write this. On early Tuesday morning, December 12th my sister-in-law Whitney Grogan-Vega lost her life to an ectopic pregnancy, just a week shy of her 32nd birthday. Despite her young age, Whitney achieved many academic goals. Her most recent achievement was earning her Master's degree in Public Health with a concentration in Global Health from Drexel University. Whitney went out of her way to be kind to everyone, she also inspired people around her to do the same. We lost a bright light in our family, that will hopefully guide us through this dark time. There are no words to comfort my brother Nicolas Vega, or her mother Susan Francisco during this time. Her tragic death was sudden and unexpected, nothing anyone could have planned for. During this time I ask if you could kindly donate to take care of unexpected expenses as well as, help during the transition to a one-income household. It would ease the mind of his loved ones, allow him to focus on his mental health, and take time for him to grieve without worry.
