Erika Rose Valenzuela, daughter, sister, and mother, passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, May 5, 2022, at the age of 49 years. She was born to T. Rochelle and Roberto Valenzuela on February 19, 1973 in Cottonwood, Utah.

They later moved to West Valley City where she graduated from Cyprus High School in 1991.  She went to SLCC and earned a degree in Cosmetology.  Erika had such a gentle spirit and we are deeply saddened by the unexpected loss of our daughter, sister and mother.  We find solace in knowing she is at peace and surrounded by loved ones that have gone before her. 

Erika is survived by her two children, Laceey (TJ) and Elijah, mother Rochelle, father Roberto, sisters Monique (Dustin), and Reina (Derek), niece Gwendalyn, nephews Gabriel (Starrnina), Miguel and Jaxon, great nephews Legend and Mateo along with many uncles, aunts, cousins.

Erika is preceded in death by her sister Carmen LaNan, Uncle Nano, grandparents and many cousins, uncles, aunts, and other family members.

A memorial service/celebration of life in her honor will be held on May 21, 2022 at Kramer Family Funeral Home & Cremation Center 2500 S Decker Lake Blvd #1 West Valley City, Utah 84119
