The late Otilia Antias was from Glendale. Her passing has left her family in a state of profound grief and financial distress. Otilia’s daughter, Elizabeth Antias, is organizing a fundraiser to help cover her mother’s funeral costs and the family’s living expenses.
Otilia Antias passed away after suffering a subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by a stroke. She spent two weeks in the hospital before succumbing to her condition. Otilia was the mother of three children, and her loss has left the family struggling to cope both emotionally and financially.
Elizabeth Antias has created a GoFundMe campaign titled "Help Otilia’s Children Cover Funeral Costs." The goal is to raise $50,000, and so far, they have raised $165 from three donations. Elizabeth explains their situation on the fundraiser page: "As much as we want to grieve and process the reality that our mother is gone, we are trying to take care of each other, having issues to resolve because of this loss. Now, we are battling to cover unexpected medical expenses and funeral costs."
The community has begun to show support, but there is still a long way to go. Nikki Wilson, a friend of the family, shared the campaign on Facebook, urging people to donate in support of Elizabeth and her siblings during this challenging time.
"Thank you so much for your love and support during this difficult time," Elizabeth expresses on the GoFundMe page, highlighting the family’s gratitude for any contributions received.
This effort underscores the harsh realities families face when dealing with unexpected medical and funeral expenses. It is a poignant reminder of the financial and emotional toll such tragedies can impose on those left behind.
