Huerta

in between visits in Fort Lupton and Brighton.

Caraveo and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra started the day April 4 with a visit to the Salud Clinic in Fort Lupton.

“ ey really are a model of integration of dental care, behavioral care, pharmacy, all in one clinic,” Caraveo said..” ey noted in particular that the easier we make it for patients to access all di erent parts of the system and all the specialists that are needed for their care, the more likely they are to go through their care. If they are having problems with mental health, they have professionals that can talk about that or help them get screened. ey have a pharmacist that can make sure everything is being taken properly and not interacting.”

She ended her 8th District tour later that afternoon with a stop at Brighton’s Sakata Farms to discuss upcoming farm legislation and said she would promote grants to help local food banks.

“ ere is an entrenchment of urban and rural divides. In this narrative, we will not let the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) be cut, and the other side says SNAP will be cut,” Cavaveo said..”I’m concentrating on this to ensure pediatricians like myself can continue these needed programs so kids don’t have hunger issues.”

Inflation Reduction Act

Billed as a question-and-answer update of the federal In ation Reduction Act signed into law last year, the ornton Active Adult discussion never strayed far from prescription prices.

e In ation Reduction Act was the nal result of President Joe Biden’s Build Back Better e orts. It included reforms meant to promote green energy options, to close tax loopholes on corporations and those making $400,000 and to lower health care premiums.

But the act also allows the government to negotiate drug prices on certain pharmaceuticals. at is key for Becerra. He noted those negotiations have lowered the price of insulin to $35 for senior Medicare

Gloria Huerta

March 15, 1940 - March 26, 2023

Gloria Gonzales Huerta, 83, of Brighton Colorado, passed away peacefully surrounded by her family’s love and God’s grace on March 26, 2023, at 8:05 pm.

Gloria Huerta was born on March 15, 1940, to Jose Maria Gonzales and Aurora Garcia Gonzales in San Benito, Texas. Gloria came from humble beginnings, raised on a cotton farm with 14 siblings. She met her future husband, Obed Huerta, Sr., when he was out looking for eld workers and passed by the Gonzales farm. Seeing several blue jeans hung on a clothesline he asked Aurora to have all her sons ready for work the next morning. To his surprise, the most beautiful girl (and all her sisters) came out of the house ready to work. Together they made a life in Colorado where they raised 7 children.

Gloria dedicated her life to her family – she loved her children and grandchildren, and always put her family rst. She loved to sing hymns as she cooked and cleaned and every so often, her children would nd her and their dad dancing to ranchero music in the kitchen. If you knew her, you loved her and if you know God, you know her.

Gloria Huerta was predeceased by her husband Obed Huerta Sr, her son Richard Huerta, her grandchildren Josiah Gonzales & Andrew Johnston, her parents Jose Maria & Aurora Gonzales and her siblings Gilberto Gonzales, Delia Gonzales, Victor Gonzales, Jose na Guerra, Jose Maria Gonzales Jr, Raquel Gonzales.

She is survived by her children, Diane (Lowell) Richardson, Obed Huerta Jr, Eliud Huerta, Lino (Beth) Huerta, Nora Kolniak, Norma (Dan) Kelley, 17 Grandchildren, 31 Great-Grandchildren and 1 Great-Great Grandchild (Gloria), her namesake.

A private interment will be held later for the immediate family.

Chesney “Cris” was born on April 24th, 1950, to Chesney H. Criswell Jr. and Alaine Criswell in Denver Colorado. In July 1990, he married Carol S. Weller. His last day with us was April 2nd 2023. For more information visit www.taborfuneralhome.com
