GoFundMe Launched to Support Children After Salem Mother’s Tragic Killing
A GoFundMe campaign has been started to provide support for two young children and cover the funeral expenses of a 20-year-old Salem mother who was killed by her boyfriend. Nayeli Nieves, the mother of a 3-year-old and 18-month-old, was known for her unwavering love and selflessness towards her children.
The campaign, organized by Jonathan and Veronica Castillo, highlights Nayeli’s dedication as a mother and her limitless care for her children. The tragic incident has left both children without any immediate family to raise them.
The Castillos have appealed to the community to contribute to the GoFundMe campaign, emphasizing that even small donations can make a significant impact on the lives of the children. The aim is to show the Nieves family that they are not alone and that there is a network of support available to them during this difficult time.
Nayeli’s boyfriend, Pablo Vicente, has been charged with her killing and is currently held without bail. According to reports, Vicente confessed to choking Nayeli in front of her children at their apartment on Pope St. in Salem before disposing of her body three days later. Despite intensive search efforts, her body has not yet been found.
A vigil was held in Salem’s Riley Plaza to remember Nayeli Nieves and offer support to her grieving family. Friends and family members described her as an amazing person and a wonderful mother who will be deeply missed. Nayeli’s sister, Thalia, tearfully expressed her love and admiration for her sister, stating that she didn’t deserve such a tragic fate.
The Department of Children & Families has taken custody of Nayeli’s children, but the family intends to seek custody in the future, as reported by CBS Boston. The GoFundMe campaign provides an opportunity for compassionate individuals to contribute and provide much-needed support to the children and the grieving family.
In conclusion, the Salem community has come together to support two young children who lost their mother tragically. The GoFundMe campaign aims to assist with their immediate needs and the cost of the funeral, showing that they are not alone during this heartbreaking time. The love and support of the community will help the family move forward and ensure that the children are provided with the care they deserve.
