“It’s something we thought would never happen, something so terrible,” her brother, Yomar Lozada, 25, told DailyMail.com on Monday. “It’s a tragedy that is very painful.”

The siblings were known throughout Colombia as ‘Yomar, Tecla and Susa’, creating comedy sketches for social media from their rural home.

Yomar Lozada recalled that he and his brother, Johan Lozada, 15, first started posting videos in early 2021 before deciding to bring Yerly Lozada on board.

The good-humored content revolved around a modest family: Argebis Lozada played the mother role while her other three siblings acted as her children.

“Susa brought joy (to the videos). I told him, ‘You can do it,'” Yomar Lozada said. ‘She was a happy girl, very happy.’

Yerly Lozada dreamed of becoming a famous influencer and making enough money to build a house for her parents, from which her mother could run her baking business.

Yerly Lozada, the youngest of nine children – the eldest died fourteen years ago – dreamed of becoming famous as an influencer and even modeling in the Andean nation.

The fourth-grader’s main goal was to help her siblings raise money to build their mother a house where she could run her baking business instead of doing it on the streets.

“She had very, very big dreams,” Yomar Lozada said. “I don’t know, everything changed overnight.”

He said the siblings recently completed a video featuring his late sister and had conversations with their parents about whether to continue creating content or stop.

“She was the driving force behind the page,” Yomar Lozada said. “So it’s really hard for me because I go to the page and look. So it hits me and my brothers and my father and mother very hard.’
