Erica Pleasant, Hawthorne, CA—Erica Pleasant, aged 28, tragically lost her life in a fatal accident on the 105 freeway in Norwalk last Thursday.

Erica was a devoted mother, always making time for her daughters despite her busy schedule. "If you knew my sister, you would know that her girls were everything to her," Sarai shared. "She loved them SO much. Erica would call or FaceTime them whenever she had a chance while at work or away from them. She would request pictures from us to see how the girls were doing."
