Hero Mom Dies Saving Daughter in Colombia Quake

A devastating earthquake in Colombia has led to the tragic death of Magnolia Garcia Lugo, a beloved member of the Bergenfield community. Garcia Lugo was reportedly trying to save her daughter Natalia when their home collapsed during the powerful tremor. She had initially escaped the rubble but bravely ran back inside to rescue her child. Tragically, a wall fell on her, resulting in her death.

Family members and church leaders from Mercy Church of God, where Garcia Lugo was an active member for 22 years, expressed their deep sorrow. Her brother, a pastor in Colombia, was involved in the search efforts following the collapse. Funeral services for Garcia Lugo were planned for Wednesday in Colombia, leaving her family and congregation to cope with their immense loss.
