Blanca Montiel Obituary

Blanca Corazon Montiel

It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our beloved angel, Blanca Corazon Montiel. Our "Cocolitos" left this earth to be reunited with our Heavenly Father on March 20, 2014.

Blanca was born on December 22, 1995 to Antonio Zavala Montiel and Avelina Perez-Hernandez and was a life-long resident of Santa Paula. Blanca attended McKevett and Barbara Webster Elementary Schools, Isbell Middle School, Renaissance High School, and was preparing to graduate with the Santa Paula High School Class of 2014. Blanca was in the process of completing a dental assistant internship through Santa Paula High School's Regional Occupational Program. Blanca also worked part-time at Carl's Jr.

Blanca was full of life and leaves us with many beautiful memories. She loved treating her family to breakfast and trips to the mall. She loved hanging out at the beach, Disneyland, Taco Bell, shopping with friends, and a good party. She loved make-up, Hello-Kitty, and basically anything pink and "girly." She had recently discovered a passion for playing the piano.

In Blanca's unique way, she was a true role model and inspiration to her younger brothers and sisters. Given her life's circumstance, she proved that through hard work and dedication, anything worth aspiring towards is within reach.

"You left an imprint on me, and no matter what there is nothing that will ever erase that." -Blanca Montiel

Blanca is preceded in death by her grandparents J. Carmen Montiel, Raul Perez and Consuelo Hernandez.

Blanca is survived by her parents Antonio Zavala Montiel and Avelina Perez-Hernandez; brothers Carmen Antonio, Noel, William, Ryan, and Anthony; and sisters Anais and Kaylee. Blanca is also survived by her grandmother Maria Natividad Zavala; uncles Fernando (Lorena), Jose Luis (Sara), Everardo (Mireya), Rodolfo (Olivia), Jose Natividad (Matilde), Jesus (Norma), and Juan (Julia); aunts Lidia (Antonio), Veronica (Javier), Gloria (J. Trinidad), Maria Elena (Everardo), and Rosalinda (Eloy); and numerous cousins.

On behalf of the Montiel and Perez-Hernandez family, we would like to extend our sincere and heart-felt gratitude to the students, faculty and staff of Santa Paula High School, the Community of Santa Paula and friends of Blanca for their overwhelming show of love and support through this very difficult time.

A visitation will be held from 12noon to 6:30pm with a rosary to be recited at 7pm on Wednesday, March 26, 2014 at Life Way Baptist Church, 673 W Santa Paula St, Santa Paula, CA 93060. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 10am on March 27, 2014, at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church, 427 North Oak Street, in Santa Paula, with Father Charles Lueras, C.R.I.C. officiating. Committal and Interment will follow at Santa Paula Cemetery.

I DO NOT KNOW YOU BUT WE SHARE THIS HORRIBLE BOND OF A PARAENT WHO HAS LOST A CHILD. NO PARENT SHOULD EVER HAVE TO FEEL THE PAIN, GRIEF, AND DESPAIR THAT LOSING A CHILD DOES. I WISH I HAD SOME MAGIC WORDS TO HELP YOU BUT THE TRUTH IS THERE ARE NONE, TIME DOES HELP SOME BUT IT ONLY TEACHES YOU TO LIVE WITHOUT THEM INSTEAD OF WITH THEM. SHE WILL FOREVER BE A BLESSED MEMORY THAT ONLY YOU KNOW SO KEEP IT CLOSE AND TURN TO THEM ON THE REALLY BAD DAYS. DANIELLA F. IS MY GRANDSON'S GIRLFRIEND, TY CASEY, WE LOST TY'S DAD ALL MOST 14 YEARS AGO AND WE STILL STRUGGLE TO GET THRU SOME DAYS.JUST TAKE COMFORT IN THE FACT THAT SHE WAS LOVED AND YOU WERE FORTUNATE TO HAVE HER FOR THE TIME YOU DID, GOD LOANS SOME OF US OUR PRECIOUS BABIES, AND THEN HE TAKES THEM HOME BECAUSE HE LOVES THEM TOO. YOU ARE IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS.

My condolences to all your family. I have 3 daughters of my own & could not imagine the pain & heartache it would cause me. My oldest daughter didn't personally know her but it touched her deeply, she kept telling me that she wondered how her family was going to deal with this & how sad this was because she was so young, I replied to her "through prayer". I pray The Lord gives you the strength to continue each day. Don't ever consider it as a loss, but as a beautiful gift that was given to all your family & friends that loved her to cherish, treasure & create beautiful memories that will forever live on. GOD needed an ANGEL and your beautiful CORAZON was called to be by his side to guide, watch & protect you guys! You will all soon meet again & she will await you with her beautiful smile in the gates of heaven with her arms wide open. I will pray & light a candle for your family. May she rest in peace.

I'm so sorry for your loss although I did not know your daughter, my kids did. It is very hard to loose a child it doesn't matter, it is still your child, I hope someday you can find peace. By the way we use to live in Santa Paula, we now live in Colorado.

Dear Blanca,

I didn't know you, but I can tell by the deep feelings that your family and friends share about you that you were a good person. It is truly sad to think that such a beautiful, young and vibrant young lady is gone. Tears run down my face as I write this because although I didn't know you, I am a father. May god bless you.

To the family: Many will tell you to be strong, to be happy with the memories you made or things like that. I say do what you feel and whatever makes you feel better. My prayers to you and yours and know that there are many others that may not know exactly what you going through, but feel like a little piece of our hearts will not be the same.
