Bany Teo’s Funeral Expenses



My name is Brenda. My son Bany Teo took his own life last night, Tuesday December 21st. He had been battling with depression for a long time, and despite trying to get him the help he needed, he unfortunately lost this battle. Bany has three brothers— Byron, Bryan, and Jairon. We are all beyond devastated by the loss of Bany and we are still in shock over his passing. Bany was such a spirited and pure soul. His intentions were always kind and he always put a smile on everyone’s face. He walked around like he knew the secrets of the world and like he was so at peace with life; one would have never known his struggles. He was one of the most selfless people I knew, always putting others’ problems before his own. Due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, our financial situation has been in ruins, and we cannot afford to pay for the proper funeral service that Bany deserves. We kindly and humbly ask that anyone donate anything they can to help us put our boy to rest in the way he deserves. Anything helps. My family and I thank you in this time of mourning, and we hope that you can help us honor Bany Teo forever.

Mi nombre es Brenda. Mi hijo Bany Teo se quitó la vida anoche, martes 21 de diciembre. Había estado luchando contra la depresión durante mucho tiempo y, a pesar de tratar de conseguirle la ayuda que necesitaba, desafortunadamente perdió esta batalla. Bany tiene tres hermanos: Byron, Bryan y Jairon. Todos estamos más que devastados por la pérdida de Bany y todavía estamos en estado de shock por su fallecimiento. Bany era un alma tan enérgica y pura. Sus intenciones siempre fueron amables y siempre puso una sonrisa en la cara de todos. Caminó como si supiera los secretos del mundo y como si estuviera tan en paz con la vida; uno nunca hubiera conocido sus luchas. Era una de las personas más desinteresadas que conocía, siempre anteponiendo los problemas de los demás a los suyos. Debido a los efectos de la pandemia de COVID-19, nuestra situación financiera se ha arruinado y no podemos permitirnos pagar el servicio funerario adecuado que Bany merece. Pedimos con amabilidad y humildad que cualquier persona done todo lo que pueda para ayudarnos a que nuestro hijo descanse de la manera que se merece. Cualquier cosa ayuda. Mi familia y yo les agradecemos en este momento de luto y esperamos que puedan ayudarnos a honrar a Bany Teo para siempre.
