An El Paso Police Department investigation continues looking into the death of a woman<\/a> at a Northeast apartment complex.<\/p>\n

Katrina Ann Silvas, 27, who an online obituary described as the mother of seven children, was found dead about 10:15 p.m. on May 6 at the Sun Pointe apartments at 4700 Hondo Pass Drive, Officer Adrian Cisneros, a police spokesman, said.<\/p>\n

“Katrina was very loved and will always be missed,” stated a Sunset Funeral Homes obituary<\/a>, which lists Silvas as being survived by four sons and three daughters.<\/p>\n
