'Beloved' Fitness Influencer Killed On Date At 40
'Beloved' Fitness Influencer Killed On Date At 40 originally appeared on The Spun. A beloved fitness influencer and mother of seven was killed while out on a date. Gloria Zamora, a popular fitness influencer, was out on a date on Saturday, June 21. She and her date were reportedly at a shopping center in Fontana, California. Her ex-husband allegedly approached the couple and opened fire. A Sheriff's Deputy in San Bernardino County was off-duty, but noticed what was happening and opened fire on the suspect, fatally striking him. Tragically, Zamora and a 43-year-old man were taken to the hospital where they were pronounced dead. The gunman died at the scene. Gloria's daughter announced the tragic news via a GoFundMe. "She leaves behind 7 beautiful children, ages 8 to 24, who are now facing a future without our mother's warmth, guidance, and unconditional love. My mom was more than just a mother — she was a light in her community. She uplifted and inspired countless women, reminding them of their worth, their strength, and their potential. She always said, 'Women can do anything they set their minds to,' and she lived those words every day. Her courage, kindness, and determination touched the lives of everyone who knew her," the fundraiser announced. "This tragedy has left our family devastated emotionally and financially. We are asking for your help to cover funeral and memorial expenses, and to ease the burden on my siblings and I as we try to navigate life in the wake of this loss. Any funds raised will go directly toward funeral costs and support for my siblings and I in the difficult months ahead. "No donation is too small. If you are unable to give, please share this page and keep my family in your thoughts and prayers. Your kindness, love, and support mean the world to us during this time of grief." The fundraiser has raised close to $35,00 so far. "My mom was senselessly taken from us, she was murdered by my step dad Tomas, in an act of unimaginable violence," the post by her daughter read. Our thoughts are with the friends and family members of the victim on Wednesday.
