Yuma says goodbye to Olga

Claudia Olga Flores, who lives in Yuma, dies after a 6-year battle with cancer

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) – At the beginning of this year we brought you the story of a wish, a wish from a special woman. Claudia Olga Flores had fought for her life for the past 6 years when she was taken off chemotherapy.

Her son Pedro “Petey” Soto asked his mother if she wanted anything and she asked to see cars. Olga loved cars and at one point even owned a classic Mustang.

On January 9, 2021, community members gathered to perform in front of Olga’s home in the Villa Hermosa subdivision. To their delight, many Mustang owners came out to show their support.

At the weekend, Olga lost her battle with cancer. Services are scheduled for Tuesday, April 27, 2021 at 10 a.m. at the Yuma Morgue (775 W. 5th Avenue).

If you know Olga, you can send flowers, plant a tree in her honor, or leave a message on her tribute wall.
