May this be a reminder of How important it is to NEVER Drink and Drive. Although we know these Angels are now with the Lord and in a better place than all of us, they were still taken so soon at only 8 years old and 5 years old. They will ALWAYS be missed, NEVER be forgotten and FOREVER be Loved and in our hearts.

A memorial fund has been set up for the Cruz and Schroder families, who are mourning the loss of their two children, Tatiana Cruz, 5, and Lorenzo Cruz, 8. The children’s father, Michael Cruz, was raised in Middletown and the two children had been attending Middletown schools until the beginning of this month. The crash occurred in the early morning Sunday at the intersection of Broad Street and Gale Avenue when the car the children were riding in was rear-ended by an SUV while waiting at a stop light, police reported.The children’s mother, Gina Schroder, and her 12-year-old son Alejandro Schroder, are still hospitalized. Their father was treated and released, according to reports.
The driver of the second car, Israel Gonzalez, 29, of Meriden, has been charged with evading responsibility after police say he left the SUV at the scene and ran away. Police are still investigating what caused the crash. The family has set up the Cruz and Schroder Memorial Fund and donations may be mailed in care of David R. Cavanaugh, Vice President, People’s United Bank, 1310 Silas Deane Highway, Wethersfield 06109.
