More pictures of my beautiful sister when she was younger.
Eliana’s first job was at Coco’s Restaurant as a hostess at age 16. She would bring home a pie everyday because Eliana famously loved free food. We got so sick of eating pies. After that, she worked as a receptionist at our family dentist’s office.
She saved up enough money to buy her first car, a used ‘99 Oldsmobile Alero that she found in the Auto Trader book.
It was the same car we used to drive to the Morongo Casino where CBS 2 was hosting the “Sports reporter for a day” contest. I went with her that day and the car was starting to overheat by the time we reached the casino. There were over 1,000 people in line, and she won!
In a world where there is so much nepotism, especially in the world of news and media, Eliana truly worked her way from the very bottom. She took every opportunity she could no matter how small it was. Nothing was ever beneath her.
She was always excited about reporting about our home: Orange County. She reported for the Irvine, Garden Grove and Orange local news reports.
Even though she had graduated from Chapman University, she still went back to Santa Ana College right after to be a part of their news program. It was at SAC where Eliana met a veteran aerial journalist that took a chance on a young reporter and brought her in as an intern.
My family appreciates all the well wishes and prayers we have received as we go through this tragic time in our lives. We love you all ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@dudejohan I'm so sorry for your loss, sending you and your entire family lots of strength, she now lives in your heart and in the hearts of all us who will remember her forever. God bless you all always. 🙏❤️🌟
My sister Eliana was a DIEHARD Los Angeles sports fan.
Her first love was the Los Angeles Lakers. Her childhood crush was Derek Fisher. I will forever cherish the 2000-2002 and 2009-2010 Lakers championships where we watched all the games together.
When the Rams moved back to LA, she became obsessed with going to NFL games and LOVED SoFi Stadium.
As far as baseball goes, she was a lapsed Angels fan. One of the best moments of our childhood as OC kids was seeing the Angels win the World Series for the first time in 2002, but more recently, she rooted for the Dodgers.
This is an important part of her lore that is not being reported about enough!
@Jnet_margarita That's how twisted they are, they don't respect different opinions or different points of view, I've come across very similar people, unlike you I've told them to fuck off ☺️🤣 if they don't know how to show respect, they shouldn't expect respect either.
This woman sat next to me, and we were having a great time until she asked what I did for work.
The moment I said Turning Point Action, her whole attitude changed. She literally was evil about it. I told her we could still get along even if we had different views, but she wasn’t having it.she said I was a racist and crazy. Against my own race.
So much for the tolerant left. 🙃
They have lost their minds.
