Juanita Cervantes, Santa Fe, NM—The community mourns the passing of Juanita Cervantes, who passed away on October 17, 2018, after a courageous two-year battle with cervical cancer. Her mother, Mary Ellen Gallegos, has organized a fundraiser to help with the burial arrangements, hoping to lay her to rest beside her beloved father, Armando, at Rosario Cemetery.
Juanita was Ellen’s only child, and her passing has left a profound emptiness in her mother’s life. Ellen shared that she has been moving frequently, and with each move, she feels that she is disturbing her daughter’s peace. Now, her hope is to give Juanita a final, undisturbed resting place with her father, where she can rest peacefully.
The estimated cost for this burial is $1,800, and Ellen has started saving in hopes that she can meet the expenses. The fundraiser has begun, and Ellen is grateful for any donations, no matter how small, to help make this possible. Mary Ellen Gallegos has expressed her deep gratitude to those who have already supported the cause, with $20 being donated so far.
The urn holding Juanita’s remains was crafted by her good friend, John Jimenez, a meaningful tribute to Juanita’s life and legacy. Ellen hopes to gather Juanita’s closest friends for a moment of prayer and remembrance as she is laid to rest with her father.
We are deeply saddened by the loss of Juanita Cervantes. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends as they prepare to say their final goodbyes.
