SEGUIN, Texas - Zak Tiemann picked up his daughters from school early this Halloween. Zayleeana, 3, and Zoey, 5, were beaming with excitement as they donned their “Frozen” costumes and went trick-or-treating in their small hometown of Seguin, Texas.

“I just feel like they’re missing something,” he said during an interview at his home in Seguin, about 50 miles south of Austin, the state capital. “Even though I’m doing the best I can... they still need a woman that’s going to show them how to go about stuff in life.” After Garcia’s death, Tiemann had to step into an unfamiliar role, one he said he was not prepared for.

For every 100,000 live births in Texas, there are 14.6 maternal deaths, according to the most recent data by the state’s Maternal Mortality and Morbidity Review Committee. As in the rest of the country, women of color are disproportionately affected.
