LOCAL WOMAN DIES FROM HEART ATTACK, WAL MART SHAKEN UP
Kissimmee- A local Wal Marts' community was completely shaken up on Sat. June 10th between the hours of 3:30-4pm. A woman who we will not ID was shopping with her family, including Mary Alvarez {a former Kiss. Wal Mart employee} when she told Valeska Rodriguez, 1 of the stores cashiers' that she felt ill. Valeska ran to get the doctor out of Wal Marts' new "Solantic Walk In Care" center, and returned to find the middle aged woman collapsed on the ground. Both the doctor and Valeska attempted to revive the woman as the wait for an ambulance ensued.
The woman {Mary's mom} died from an apparent massive heart attack, possibly before the ambulance even arrived. Slight chaos ensued as the incident unfolded. Managers James Gibson and Gene Gessler only described the scene as "not pretty".
Cashier Valeska and 1 of the stores CSM's also had to be taken to the hospital. The traumatic events led to the 2 of them each suffering a panic attack. Both spent a day or so in the hospital and were released.
Mary's mom was laid to rest last Thursday, June 15th in front of a decent crowd. Many of Wal Mart's employees, including Mary's closest friends such as the team from the Wal Mart bakery and several other fresh area associates attended.
Mary's mom was 59.

Because I like to figure things out on my own that's why.
