Mourners gathered at the First Baptist Church in Uvalde Saturday for the funeral of Alexandria Aniyah Rubio, 10, one of the student victims of the elementary school massacre on May 24.
Mireles’ daughter Adalynn Ruiz remembered her mom in“Today, I laid my bestfriend to rest,” she wrote. “Mom, one day I hope I find peace in all of this. Because I will never understand why you were taken from me.”
“I never thought I would be having to lay you to rest this young. Many people have told me that they could see you in me and I couldn’t be more happier to hear that,” she wrote. “My sweet mom, I will miss you for the rest of my life. I will miss you when I’m happy, when I’m sad, when I’m angry.”“Mom, I will see you again, but for now, watch over dad and I. I can’t wait to reunite because our family is now missing our glue. Shine bright like a diamond momma.
Mireles had a passion for CrossFit workouts, according to Carlos Gonzalez, 34, a realtor who attended the Friday service. “She was a hell of a CrossFitter,” Gonzalez, who often worked out with Mireles at Shotgun CrossFit gym in Uvalde, told the Express-News. “She was a beast on the competition floor.”“She was quiet, but I knew if I wanted to get a workout in, she was the person to be with because she was no-holds-barred,” Gonzalez said.
Mireles was buried at Hillcrest Memorial Cemetery, where 17 of the mass-shooting victims have been interred, according to the Express-News.
