Families of COVID victims brace for tough holiday without loved ones
KTVU s Jesse Gary reports.
SAN JOSE, Calif. (KTVU) - The painful loss of life from COVID is experienced by more than 23,000 families across California.
This has really been a devastating year for us. COVID has changed our family forever, said Carla Collins.
Collins and her daughter, Maria Miller, said the bitterness of the COVID pandemic bit their family in April. Their aunt, 70-year-old Carmen Seron, was the glue that held the clan together.
What they thought was a simple sinus infection worsened, until a diagnosis of coronavirus. Seron was the 47th virus-related fatality in Santa Clara County.
