Wow, that sucks. From the volunteer stuff they listed in the article, it seems like she was a really good person.

And she volunteered as a coach on an inner city baseball team, too. Terrible.

Orozco, who is survived by her husband, Hector Orozco, coached baseball at an Omaha Boys and Girls Club, was a Special Olympics volunteer and served as president of the Police Officers' Ball to benefit the Special Olympics, the chief said. She also took in rescue dogs and was a Girl Scout mentor.
Terribly sad.
