A GoFundMe campaign has been launched to support the family of 16-year-old Isabel Gallegos, affectionately known as Izzy, who tragically passed away in a car accident on Christmas Eve.
Sylvia Rivas from Missouri City, TX, initiated the fundraiser to assist with the burial expenses for the young life lost too soon. In her post on GoFundMe, Rivas shared the family’s immense grief, stating, “The night before Christmas, our family was devastated with the loss of Isabel Gallegos. Isabel was only 16 years old when she was called to heaven by her creator, leaving her parents, Nathaniel and Laura Ferero Gallegos, sisters, family, and world behind.”
The family expressed their deep sorrow, describing Isabel as “beautiful, intelligent, and loving.” Her mother, Laura Forero Gallegos, fondly remembered her daughter, noting, “there was never a dull moment with her.”
The GoFundMe page has a goal of $8,000 to cover the funeral costs, and as of this report, it has managed to raise $7,204. The campaign lists Laura Forero Gallegos as the beneficiary, aiming to alleviate some of the financial burdens during this heartbreaking time.
For those wishing to contribute or learn more, the fundraiser can be found on the GoFundMe platform, where the community is coming together to support the Gallegos family in their time of need.
