Help Us Lay Our Loving Father to Rest

Donation protected
My name is Serena, and I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to share that my beloved father passed away suddenly from a heart attack, along with other health complications. He was only 46 years old — far too young to leave this world.

My dad was the kind of person who lit up every room with his goofiness, warmth, and the deep love he had for his family. He was a proud, devoted father of four, and we were his entire world. Just recently, he became a grandfather — and though his time with his grandson was short, the love he gave was immeasurable and lasting. He was so proud to be “Papa.”

This loss has shaken our family to the core. It was unexpected and has left us not only emotionally heartbroken but financially unprepared. As we try to navigate this unimaginable pain, we’re also trying to gather the resources to give him the peaceful and dignified goodbye he deserves.

If you find it in your heart to help — whether through a donation or simply by sharing this page — we would be forever grateful. Every dollar will go toward his funeral expenses and helping our family find stability in the wake of this tragedy.

Thank you for reading, and for holding our family in your thoughts during this incredibly difficult time.

With love and gratitude,
Serena and Family
