We are raising funds to support Denise, a grieving mother who is facing the unimaginable loss of her daughter, Gabriella “Gabby” Cartagena.

No parent should ever have to endure the pain of losing a child. In the midst of profound grief, Denise is now facing not only emotional devastation, but the overwhelming weight of day-to-day responsibilities, unexpected expenses, and the need for time and space to grieve.

This GoFundMe is separate from Gabby’s Celebration of Life fund and is intended specifically to help Denise directly—to ease financial stress during this time, assist with living expenses, travel, missed work, counseling, and any needs that arise as she navigates this heartbreaking chapter.

Denise is a loving mother and grandmother who has always shown up for her family. Right now, she needs that same love and support returned to her.

If you are able to give, please know that any amount helps. If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser and keeping Denise and the entire family in your prayers means just as much.

Thank you for your compassion, support, and kindness during this incredibly painful time.
