Hello family and friends.

The Villarreal Family is going through a very difficult time. Ressa was admitted to the hospital on Dec. 29 with severe pneumonia and Influenza A. While fighting for her life in the ICU she was put on a ventilator to help her body heal. Unfortunately, due to complications her body was never fully able to recover and Ressa passed away on January 10. Ressa leaves behind her loving husband Javier and their 8-month-old twins, Ezra and Vincent.

Ressa was a wonderful mother to her twin boys Ezra and Vincent. She was raising them at home, while Javier worked to support their family. While raising twins is a difficult task, Ressa worked hard to make sure her sons were healthy and happy and thriving in life. She found so much joy in raising and spending time with her boys. She loved to spend time with them driving around and taking walks. Ressa was very thorough is ensuring she was on top of how to best help her boys meet their developmental milestones and was constantly researching how to best care for them. 

This sudden loss has put a lot of emotional and financial stress on Javier. He is now facing the big task of caring for the twins while managing daily expenses. Javier wasn’t able to work full time while Ressa was in the ICU, as he kept a bedside vigil next to his wife and still tended to their twins as he could. They need our support now more than ever.
