    An Atlantic City mother and her unborn daughter were among the victims of Friday night's fiery crash in Egg Harbor Township.

    Escarlin Suriel, 21, was eight months pregnant when she died as a result of the three-vehicle crash.

    Now her family is hoping to be able to give their loved ones a proper goodbye.

    Suriel and her husband, Francisco Nin, were heading east on the Black Horse Pike in the township's West Atlantic City section when they were struck head-on by a eastbound car that had come into their lane, according to police.

    Suriel, who was driving, was then pushed back into another eastbound vehicle before her car came to rest in the marsh.

    Suriel died. Her husband was injured, along with six others, including a man who was among those who helped get people out of the vehicle that burned.

    "No one was prepared for the horrible news that we all received on the night of July 26th," sister-in-law Maria Tropea wrote in a GoFundMe .

    She described Suriel as "a loving, caring and devoted mother and wife. She was a beautiful soul."

    The woman also leaves behind a 4-year-old daughter who was set to become big sister to Viviana.

    Nin remains hospitalized.
