The sisters were killed, along with their parents Ana Julia Tejada and Jacobo Nunez; Jaslyn Gonzalez, daughter of Maria Gonzalez; and sisters Marlyn Rosario Nunez and Naily Rosario, both daughters of Maria Nunez, in an automobile accident on the Bronx River Parkway on April 29, 2012.
The garden, which is called El Jardin De Las Maria’s Maria’s Garden, is on a hill beside O’Hare Hall, in the southeast corner of the campus.
Gerardo Galiano, who was the women’s supervisor in Campus Operations, and Claudio Burgaleta, S.J. associate professor of theology at Graduate School of Religion and Religious Education, spoke at the dedication.
