COVID-19 death of Waco Family Health Center employee devastates at home, abroad

WACO, TX – Gabino Sanchez’s family is one of many facing their first Christmas season without a loved one lost to COVID-19. Gabino Sanchez, a maintenance worker at the Waco Family Health Center, died from COVID-19 on Dec. 9, three weeks after contracting the virus. His wife, Maria, and daughters, Diana Salinas and Ernestina Sanchez, said Gabino could make them laugh about just about anything. Diana, 38, said despite the jokes he would make, her father took the virus as seriously as anyone. He was just unlucky.
