️ In Remembrance of Taylor Lafferty ️
Hi, my name is Ryan Derstein. A few friends and I got together, and we decided to try to raise money in remembrance of Taylor Lafferty. Taylor was a big part of everyone's life. He attended Missouri Military Academy, and was a rising leader at school. Every chance Taylor had, he represented MMA's Choir, Fusileers, Cross Country, and Wrestling teams. Our goal was only $500. We were hoping to have enough money raised by December 31st of this year. In just 24 hours, we had already reached our goal. After I turned the GoFundMe off, parents and Cadets at Missouri Military Academy reached out to me and were asking for me to continue the fundraiser for the family. One of the staff members at Missouri Military Academy just recently donated a shadow box for us to give to Taylor's parents. What are we doing with this money? I would like to put this money towards the tariff on gas, and the cost of a hotel for them to stay at when they come down for the memorial. Any extra money will be given to the family in a check. We hope to deliver this present to the family when we see them. Any donations are highly appreciated.
Thank you for all the support.
Sincerely,
Ryan Derstein
