In loving memory of Arturo Tlapa
Donation protected
Hello I'm Blanca Jimenez and I'm asking for help to raise money to cover funeral expenses for my brother-in-law Arturo Tlapa and medical bills for my sister Maria, my niece and my sister's father-in-law. On Wednesday morning, my sister and her husband along with his father and my 2 nieces, were struck by another vehicle on the highway in New Jersey. They were 30 minutes from home when they were struck and ufortunately my brother-in-law passed away on scene. Now, my sister is left to care for their 2 daughters alone without her husband after having him by her side for almost 15 years. They were the victims of insensitive, careless and disgusting people committing crimes fleeing from the police. My sister has no other form of income at the time and in between mourning her husband, caring for her injured daughter and healing from her own injuries arranging for a funeral is just too much for her. This money would help eliminate the stress of funeral expenses and everything in between. For those who don't know my sister she has been dealt a very bad set of cards throughout her life. At a young age she lost her leg to cancer. She learned to live life with this disability and met her husband Arturo. Maria and Arturo have raised 2 amazing daughters who are 12 and 7, and to think that they will grow up without their father is devastating. Arturo was a loving and caring father and husband. He was so dedicated to his family and his work and was always planning his next move. He dreamed of opening his own restaurant and had so many plans for his family and their future. I ask that during this time you pray for my sister and her daughters to have the strength to get through these horrible times. We appreciate any help you may be able to give and the support.
