Victoria passed away last July at just 18 years old, only a few months after being diagnosed with leukemia. Victoria had also lived with Williams Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder. Despite these challenges, she had a remarkable life and was planning to enroll in A&M–San Antonio’s Tu Casa program, which offers students with intellectual disabilities the opportunity to experience university life.
