RIP GLORIA MONTAÑEZ (November 15, 1967 – February 7, 2023)

Formal pronouncement of death was made on Tuesday at 5:08 p.m.

Ruling by the deputy medical examiner was published on October 4, presumably after the results of tox screening came back positive for the drugs. This was an accidental overdose.

We assume the decedent’s surname is Montañez and not plainly spelled as Montanez.
