On the evening of July 26, 2013, 69-year-old Samira Pisciotti was killed inside the Todel Apartments in Hialeah, Florida, where she and her husband lived and helped manage the building. Samira, of Colombian descent and remembered as a devoted grandmother and strict but fair manager, and her husband went to investigate smoke coming from a fourth-floor unit. The shooter, 42-year-old Pedro Alberto Vargas, had set that apartment on fire and then opened fire in the hallway, fatally shooting Samira and her husband.

Vargas continued the attack, firing from a balcony into the street and fatally shooting 33-year-old Carlos Javier Gavilanes as he left in his car, then forcing entry into another unit and killing Patricio Simono Merly S. Niebles and Priscilla Perez. He took two residents hostage on the fifth floor; after hours of negotiation a SWAT team stormed the building and fatally shot Vargas, ending the siege. No arrest was made of the shooter alive.

Does anyone who knew Samira or her family have memories or information to share about her role at the Todel Apartments?
