San Antonio, Texas – Margaret Valerie Gossett, also known as Val, was found dead on August 20, 2024, under mysterious circumstances. The cause of her death remains unknown, and a criminal investigation is currently ongoing.
Val, who had recently inherited a substantial sum of money, tragically lost her life before she could use her inheritance to improve her situation. At the time of her passing, she was homeless and had planned to use the money to get off the streets and help others in her community. Her death has left many questions unanswered, especially since those she trusted reportedly mishandled her inheritance.
A GoFundMe fundraiser has been launched by Ashley Nies to provide Val with a memorial that reflects the generosity and kindness she showed to others. The fundraiser aims to raise $100,000 for a farewell celebration that will include a balloon release and prayer candles in Val’s honor. The hope is that her friends and the community will have the opportunity to say their goodbyes and reflect on the challenges faced by people like Val in the homeless community.
Many who knew Val have expressed their sorrow at her passing. On Facebook, Tina Louise Wright wrote, "I just found out today that Margaret Valerie Gossett passed away. Prayers go out to her family. Rest In Peace, you’re going to be missed."
As the community comes together to remember Val, the investigation into her tragic death continues. Those wishing to contribute to the memorial can do so through the fundraiser organized by Ashley Nies.
