UC Davis veterinary school graduate Loreto A. Godoy has died from injuries she suffered
in a car crash Friday that killed three others, including her husband's parents, according to
a UC Davis news release.

Godoy, 32, and her husband Fernando O. Mardones, 36, were driving to Southern
California last week when a 29-year-old man traveling north on Interstate 5 crossed the
median and collided head-on with their car. The man, as well as Mardones' parents sitting
in the front of the car, died at the scene.

Family members told university officials Wednesday that Godoy, who died at Memorial
Medical Center in Modesto, will be an organ donor.

Mardones and the couple's 8-month and 4-year-old daughters survived the crash. They
have returned home to Davis with broken bones, and they expressed gratitude to the UC
Davis community, the news release said.
