All Martha Montoyas daughter wanted for her 13th birthday was for her stepfather to move out.
It was a gift that Montoya died trying to give her.
Walter Ricardo Lopez Barrios, who Montoyas two daughters said was overly affectionate, awakened Montoya early on Aug. 20, the eve of her daughters big day. He killed the 56-year-old womanwith a sledgehammer and a knifein the early morning attack, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriffs Office.
Two weeks later, Lopez Barrios is in the county jail awaiting a Sept. 19 court appearance. Montoyas teenage girls whom The Palm Beach Post is not naming because they are minors are with family members in Lake Worth.

Family members said the younger girl spends spare moments replaying 911 calls and reading news accounts about her mothers futile, and final, attempt at making her stepfather leave. Her older sister, 16, cant silence the memory of their mothers screams.
Mi nias, mi nias, mi nias My girls.
In love with being in love
Monica Collins remembers her wild girl cousin Montoya rushing to Florida from Cali, Colombia, in the 1980s. Montoya spent the next few years traveling, and falling in and out of love, Collins said.
The free spirit eventually settled in Lake Worth, took a job at The Breakers and had two daughters.
To help pay the bills, Montoya rented part of her Lake Worth home and Lopez Barrios moved in a decade ago.
The tenant and Montoya started as friends, then the relationship grew romantic. They married in 2011.
Collins remembers the 37-year-old Guatemalan citizen as respectful and quiet, though the marriage wasnt perfect.
Collins recalls Lopez Barrios stranding Montoya and her daughters on the side of a road after an argument.
But Montoya didnt give up.
Martha was in love with being in love, Collins said, even if it turned out to be the wrong thing.
A better life
Above romance, though, were her girls, and she was unwavering in her insistence that theyd have a better life.
They would be the first in the family to graduate from college, and they would go into the world debt-free.
Montoya started putting money toward that dream before the girls could talk, according to Michael Garrett, her co-worker at The Breakers. She worked at the Palm Beach resort for more than 23 years.
Her co-workers at the hotel are intent on finishing those payments and have raised more than $6,000.
Montoyas oldest daughter, a high school junior, immerses herself in piles of homework from her honors classes. But her nights are restless, Collins said. When she wakes up, shes unsure if her pillow is wet from sweat or tears.
Montoyas family is busy sorting out the details of the girls lives custody, housing, therapy and other tasks that their mother would have done.
Her co-workers, too, are adjusting to life without Montoyas motherly spirit, said Garrett, general manager of in-room dining at The Breakers. Montoya was the first to nurse her sniffly coworkers or to entertain young guests.
A car crash, a heart attack stuff like that, thats natural, he said. Something like this, theres no wrapping your head around it.

Fox News and Roger Ailes have reached a settlement in the sexual harassment lawsuit filed by former anchor Gretchen Carlson.
Fox News parent company 21st Century Fox also issued an apology to Carlson, who accusedAiles ofsabotaging her career after she rebuffed sexual advances and complained about a hostile work environment. Her contract was not renewed in June after 11 years at Fox News Channel.
At the same time the settlement was announced, Fox News also revealed that Greta Van Susteren is leaving the company. Van Susteren was an anchor for 14 years. Two people briefed on the matter who were not authorized to comment publicly said her abrupt exit was due to a financial disagreement.
Political analyst Brit Hume will take over Van Susterens 7 p.m. ET hour starting Tuesday.
Van Susteren was a vocal defender of Ailes when sexual harassment accusations were first leveledagainst the former Fox News chairman.
The settlement which will pay Carlson $20 million according to one person familiar with the terms of the deal was announced Tuesday in a statement from 21st Century Fox, which included a full apology.
21st Century Fox is pleased to announce that it has settled Gretchen Carlsons lawsuit, the company said in a statement. During her tenure at Fox News, Gretchen exhibited the highest standards of journalism and professionalism. She developed a loyal audience and was a daily source of information for many Americans. We are proud that she was part of the Fox News team. We sincerely regret and apologize for the fact that Gretchen was not treated with the respect and dignity that she and all of our colleagues deserve.
Carlson said in a statement:I am gratified that 21st Century Fox took decisive action after I filed my complaint. Im ready to move on to the next chapter of my life in which I will redouble my efforts to empower women in the workplace. I want to thank all the brave women who came forward to tell their own stories and the many people across the country who embraced and supported me in their #StandWithGretchen. All women deserve a dignified and respectful workplace in which talent, hard work and loyalty are recognized, revered and rewarded.
Since the allegations by Carlson became public she filed a suit in a New Jersey Superior Court on July 6 reports have emerged of other women who have worked with the executive in the past also saying that he sought sexual favors in return for employment opportunities. Ailes has denied those incidents as well.
Ailes resigned on July 21, leaving the influential news division he founded with a $40-million severance package. Ailes was also indemnified by the company for any damages from the lawsuit.
Attorneys for Carlson had said they had been contacted by as many as 20 women who said they were subjected to inappropriate behavior by Ailes.

On Monday, the San Francisco 49ers released 29-year-old tight end Bruce Miller after he was arrested earlier in theday for allegedly attacking a 29-year-old man and his 70-year-old father.
On Sunday afternoon, Miller posted a photograph to his Instagram account showing him and two others sitting at the bar at the Palm House restaurant in San Francisco. It included the captionSundays are for the boys, and it was directed to the official account for Nike and an account with the handle kanye, which included no posts.
An unidentified employee of the restaurant told KTVU that Miller visited the bar three different times that night and that he was hammered.
According to police, hours later at some time past 2:40 a.m. Monday morning an extremely intoxicated Miller attempted to renta room attheMarriott Fishermans Wharf hotel in San Francisco, only to discover it was fully booked.
He then proceeded to head upstairs anyway, where he attempted to enter the room of an elderly couple staying there. The unnamed couples 29-year-old son was staying in the next room over.
After hearing the commotion, the son approached Miller and told him he had the wrong room.
In response, the 248-pound, 6-foot-2 Miller allegedly attacked him.
The mans 70-year-old father triedto help break up the fight, but Miller allegedly punched him, breaking bones in his face and knocking him unconscious, KTVU reported.
Both father and son were brought to the hospital. Their condition is unknown.
At that point, Miller fled to a Travelodge next door.
Dinesh Shreshta, the front desk manager at Travelodge,told NBC Bay Areathat Miller was sitting on a flight of stairs in the hotel, vomiting intermittently and bleeding from a wound on his forehead.
Shreshta called 911.
Miller was arrested four felony counts two of criminal threats, one of assault with a deadly weapon (not a firearm), and one of elder abuse and a misdemeanor battery charge. He was booked into the San Francisco County Jail, where his bail was set at $178,000 bail, ESPN reported.
Miller left the jail around 2 p.m. on Monday through a back exit, NBC reported.
Early Monday morning, the 49ers addressed the incident in a statement obtained by ESPN.
The San Francisco 49ers organization is aware of the media report regarding Bruce Miller, it read. We are gathering the relevant facts of this matter and will continue to monitor the situation.
A few hours later, the organization used its official Twitter account to announce that Miller had been released from the team.
This isnt Millers first run-in with the law since being drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in the seventh round of the 2011 NFL draft.
In March 2015, he pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor charge of disturbing the peace after being accused of shoving his ex-fiancee and smashing her cellphone during an argument in Santa Clara, the Associated Press reported.
As part of his sentence, Miller was required to attend a class on stopping domestic violence for 16 weeks.
On Monday, Millers agent and lawyer Jack Reale told the Associated Press that he was still gathering information. Miller himself did not respond to the APsrequest for comment. It is unclear if he has entered a plea.
As of early Tuesday morning, the last post on Millers Twitter feed wasa link to the aforementioned Instagram post with an emoji depicting a hand curled into the rock-and-roll gesture.

Appliances like dishwashers, microwaves, refrigerators," said Jill Gonzalez, an analyst for WalletHub. "And then an outlier here is strollers.
Strollers? Yeah the birth rate spikes in August. Because of holiday babies.
And if you need a new car for your growing family, youre also in luck. Car sales have been weak, so dealers might be willing to deal.
Theyll have to get rid of some of their inventory because August was rather weak and theyre going to use Labor Day as a starting point to do that, said Chris Christopher, director of consumer economics at IHS Global Insight.
Whatever you do, dont shop for clothes or jewelry today. Those things dont go on sale until Black Friday.
