In what should have been a time of celebration and love, a newlywed couple’s life was tragically cut short just days after their wedding. Ruben Rodriguez and Juliana Rodriguez-Plata were killed in a devastating accident on Interstate 70 in Colorado, marking an abrupt and heartbreaking end to their journey together.

The couple, along with their 1-year-old son Daniel and Juliana’s parents, were traveling westbound on I-70 near Wheat Ridge, Colorado, at approximately 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, August 15. Their world was turned upside down when an eastbound semi-truck lost control, rolled over, and spilled its load of large pipes across the highway. The debris spanned over two football fields and struck several vehicles, including the one carrying Ruben, Juliana, and their family.
