The community of Santa Barbara is mourning the loss of Teresa Ceballos, a cherished local figure who passed away on May 5th after a prolonged battle with heart disease. Known for her vibrant presence and caring nature, Teresa was not only a beloved wife and mother but also a friend, sister, and neighbor whose absence will be profoundly felt by many.
In the wake of her passing, Teresa’s husband, Gilberto Ceballos, has initiated a fundraising campaign to cover the expenses of her funeral, in accordance with her last wishes to be buried in Santa Barbara. The campaign has managed to gather $1,150 out of a $20,000 goal, with contributions from eight donors, reflecting the community’s support during this difficult time.
Skar Juarez, expressing the collective grief on social media, noted, "It’s with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of my beloved tía Teresa Ceballos. We’re raising funds for her funeral services and would appreciate any contribution. Your support during this tough time would be incredibly appreciated."
As the community continues to rally support for the Ceballos family, the heartfelt messages and donations stand as a testament to Teresa’s impact on those around her. The fundraiser, ongoing and vital, highlights the struggle and solidarity of a community in the face of loss.
