Family members say the father of a 2-year-old girl killed in a crash on I-70 Friday afternoon is struggling to come to terms with his loss.

Sophia Rivera was in the back seat of her mom’s car when the crash happened.

“She was going to drop Sophia off at her father’s house and never made it,” said Corenia Rivera, a paternal aunt.
