Angel O'Donnell - in memory of

Our loving light and unwaveringly generous mother, daughter, sister, cousin and beloved friend, Angel, passed away Sunday, 4/18/21. It helps us to know that although, we mourn, the sweet and kind disposition that Angel radiated in life will continue through her children: Kai (15), Donovyn (12) and little Kaliyah (3).

After a lengthy and difficult custody battle, mental illness and being homeless the past year and a half, the stress may have gotten to her. Angel was a tough cookie that faced her mental illness and given situation with an incredible inner strength and fortitude. Sadly, these challenges began to weaken our strong fighter until she had no fight left. We will miss Angel with all of our hearts and love.

We are reaching out with a Go Fund Me for her eldest son, Kai (and to offset some funeral costs).  Kai is such a kind and determined young man who puts his all into education and his joy into basketball and football. Kai  is a freshman in HS with many friends.  He is a great big brother to his younger siblings. He has aspirations of going to college and one day becoming an architect (or something related). He also likes the idea of the construction field or cutting hair, like his Mom! We are working to establish a safety net and a college fund for Kai. During this time when Kai has not only lost his mother but potentially his two younger siblings since custody will place them in separate households. Please help us help Kai continue down his path of  finding joy in life, stability in education, and having the ability to be able to help him leap the barriers that are yet unseen.
