SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - A local family is grieving the loss of three loved ones to COVID-19 in the past several months, including a father and his daughter who died four days apart.
In mid-November, a few days after 78-year-old Santiago Covarrubias returned to San Diego from attending a funeral in Mexico, he was admitted into the ER. He tested positive for COVID-19, and a week later, he was placed on a ventilator. His daughter, Carmen, says in late November, her father, a grandfather of 10, passed away.
In January, the family would be hit with another unthinkable loss. This time, it would be Juan Covarrubias and Monica Covarrubias, a father and daughter, whose deaths would tragically happen about a week apart. NBC 7 spoke to Juan’s son Jose Covarrubias who says the compounded losses shook him to the core, unable to gain a full moment to process that his father, sister, and uncle were now gone.
“I haven t even really had a chance to mourn my dad before my sister passed away,” Juan Covarrubias says. “So, we still haven t gotten over my tio, uncle, my Santiago passing away at the end of November.”
