Erika Gianella Solimano

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Erika Solimano, who left this world at the young age of 54. Erika was a true warrior, bravely fighting gastric cancer for nine years and defying every odd placed before her. Her strength and resilience inspired everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.

Erika was the devoted wife to her true love, Claudio DePlano, with whom she shared a beautiful life. She was also a loving mother to her daughters, Mariagianella Flores and Mariapaula Flores, and a proud, adoring grandmother to her sweet MiaBella. She was the cherished daughter of her devoted parents, Atilio and Rosa Solimano, and a beloved big sister to Atilio Solimano and Karim Solimano, who she always said were her life and greatest support. Erika also held a special place in her heart as a caring and loving aunt, touching the lives of her nieces and nephews with warmth and joy.

Erika made a lasting impact on everyone around her with her kindness, bravery, and unconditional love. Her radiant smile could light up any room, her laughter was contagious, and her boundless capacity to love was beyond words. She lived her life as an example of resilience, courage, and grace, leaving behind a legacy of love that will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew her.

She will be profoundly missed and lovingly remembered by her family, friends, and all whose lives she touched.
