Marina's Funeral Service and Transport to Mexico

Donation protected
Our beloved friend Salvador Tejeda recently and unexpectedly lost his mother Marina on October 19, 2020 due to her complications with Synovial Sarcoma (a type of cancer that can come from different types of soft tissue, such as muscle or ligaments) and experiencing salmonella poisoning while undergoing chemotherapy.

Marina was first diagnosed with Synovial Sarcoma in 2012. At one point she was in remission, but the cancer recently returned. She has been battling cancer ever since and was doing chemotherapy when she started to feel sick and was admitted to the hospital on October 14. She was in great spirits when she was admitted and assured her family that everything was going to be fine.

We unexpectedly lost her five days later.

Sal has now been burden with covering costs most of us are not prepared for. Burying a parent is hard and right now Sal needs any type of support and help to cover those costs. With your help, Sal can use the money to lay her for eternal rest in her hometown in Mexico and take care of any unfinished business Marina had back home.

Any help is appreciated.
