Her sister, Maribel Villanueva, was a single mom. After her death, Torres and her husband took custody of David.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a way, David’s elementary school teacher also became a sort of surrogate mom when he eventually returned to class, though Mayra Alvarado recalls not being prepared whatsoever to handle the death of a school parent. “I was just in shock. I was like, no, this can't be happening. I know [COVID deaths] happen especially in our communities. But I still was in disbelief.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s been painful to lose so many of our elderly to COVID-19. But there are also many families, especially Latino families, grieving the deaths of those who are younger. Maribel Villanueva was one of \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/COVID-19/Race-Ethnicity.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2,389 Latino residents\u003c/a> between the ages of 34 and 49 in the state who died; by comparison 333 whites in that age group died.

Maribel — everyone called her Mari — was the middle child. “She fought the good fight when she was here,\" Torres said. \"Like everybody else she had moments of hardship.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sitting on the front porch of her two-story home in Oakland, Torres said that hardship was one reason she and her husband welcomed Mari, her son and his grandmother to live under their wing, in a downstairs apartment, for little rent. “We grew up in a domestic violence, alcohol kind of environment. It was hard. I was able to cope in a different way than she did. She was very sensitive.
