Army officer returns home to San Diego to say goodbye to mother before deportation

The Cruz family’s home on Thursday evening could have been the scene of any family reunited for the holiday season.

-snip-

But mixed in with the joy of togetherness was the knowledge that right after the holidays, the family matriarch Rocio Rebollar Gomez, 50, will have to leave the United States.

Rebollar Gomez is waiting for a miracle, her only remaining option after all legal avenues for keeping her in the United States have been exhausted. But she believes it will come before Immigration and Customs Enforcement requires her to leave the country on January 2.

Meanwhile, her son 2nd Lt. Gibram Cruz, 30, will spend about three days at home from his post in Arizona as an Army intelligence officer. He arrived Thursday morning at the San Diego airport to a swarm of hugs and tears where his family waited for him at the curb. He leaves again on Sunday morning.
