Celebrate the Joy of Graciela's Life

It is with extreme sadness that we announce the passing of Graciela "Gracie" Rivas. Gracie was a bright spark in this world and will be deeply missed. She touched the lives of so many with her love and kindness. There was never a dull moment when in her presence. She brought so much joy and happiness everywhere that she went. Her smile would brighten up any room. To know her was to love her. Everyone in her life loved her dearly, she was indeed one of a kind.

This loss has been extremely difficult for all of us after losing Maura Dominguez (her mother), Bonnie Rivas (her sister) and now our beloved Gracie.

Gracie is survived by her father Javier Rivas and son Bryan Gonzalez Jr. She will be truly missed by all of us, but mostly by her son Bryan. Please send out healing prayers for he is deeply grieving the loss of his mother. The love that she had for him was unconditional and can never be replaced. Losing his mother at such a young age is extremely heartbreaking and difficult. Their love is now eternal and he will now have a guardian angel watching over him.

We are raising money to cover the costs of the funeral and memorial services as this passing was completely unexpected. We want to give her the memorial service she deserves, to honor her memory and to say our last goodbyes. We appreciate your thoughts, prayers, and messages of support during this difficult time. Your kindness means the world to us as we navigate through our grief.

Information will be updated regarding where services will be held for those that wish to say their last goodbyes.

Thank you for your compassion and generosity. Together, we can give Gracie the farewell she deserves.
