Mom's funeral and Memorial Expenses

Donation protected

The story of my mom Olivia is one of sacrifice and selflessness. She was an out-of-this-world woman with so much love to give and an endless desire to place her loved ones first before herself. There was infinite room in her heart for friends, family, and everyone she met. Her compassion knew no bounds. Her love for animals and strays was immense. I know Sunny-D, Eliza and Socks are going to miss her, too.  This feisty little woman from Tijuana, Mexico stole people's hearts with her good humor,  her infectious laugh, and her heartwarming smile. Her feisty spirit eventually brought her to the U.S. where she came to lead a much different life than the one she grew up with in Mexico. Having been the youngest of six children and facing extreme poverty, she made the decision to migrate to the U.S. and work tirelessly to provide for her family back home. After years of working many jobs and  saving enough funds, she would end up meeting my dad Humberto and after a series of heartbreaking attempts, would end up having two wonderful children. She would always boast that her greatest accomplishment in life would always be her children, which was enduring proof of her selflessness. Having made many sacrifices and remembering what she had to endure as a child, she would go on to provide her children with a healthy upbringing and provide them with beautiful life lessons and life lasting memories. 

My family and I cannot fully express how grateful we are to all of our family and friends who have showered us with love and support.

We need help with arrangements and any donation helps. We're trying to reach this goal by next Thursday. Even if you can't please keep my family and my mom in your thoughts and prayers.

- Love,

Valerio Family
