Funeral Expenses For Riley

Riley, also known as Bird, was like no other dude around. Besides having such a contagious smile and the dorkiest laugh, Riley was one of the best people to have around in any situation. He never expected anything from anyone and would just go with the flow. All he ever wanted to do was tag along and chill with the big kids, the cool cats. Bird made friends wherever he went whether it was at the pool, the park, even the streets. I say "was" because our dear Riley passed away early this morning. A drunk driver rolled his vehicle resulting in Riley's death.

I created this account to raise money for Riley's family and funeral funds. Not only do I want to raise money for my family, but I want to raise awareness for drinking, driving, and seatbelt safety. People need to understand that our young are becoming statistics, nothing but numbers to the people whom lives they haven't touched. More people need to be aware how many lives are ruined because of one little mistake.

Riley has left a little piece of him with every person he has come across and he will be forever flying high like the crazy little bird he was.

Us Nelson's can't thank the community, family, and friends enough for the support and prayers so far and we will forever be appreciative of anything headed our way.
