Over a course of 10 years, the Arizona family built up its business. They went from selling tamales from the back of a minivan to running a popular food truck and a successful catering business in Phoenix -- Tamales y Tacos Puebla -- with a long list of corporate and wedding clients.The trouble began when Arizona -- like other states -- began putting restrictions on businesses and asking people to stay home in an effort to stop the coronavirus from spreading.

"It was very hard because we did everything together," Aguirre said, fighting back tears."Forty-two years being by his side."His mother still struggles with pulmonary issues from the disease."She's not 100%, she's about 60-65% better, but she's here," Aguirre said.

Trump has to give them the magic medicine he treated with in just two days

So sorry for your losses my family sends there condolences

Sad story. Unfortunately over 40% + of our country does not care..

My condolences. A very heartbreaking story.

Those still alive of voting age, are they voting for trump, because even after such tragedies some people are still behind the man, or he would not have anyone at his rally’s, sorry to hear about their loss, but that’s the big question, are they angry enough to vote him out?

I can't even imagine. 😥

Were they all as obese as he is? Obesity is dangerous. Why the left keeps telling people fat is beautiful is criminal.

Covid didn't take away his livelihood. The government did.

He and his family should qualify for Medicaid
