Dear friends, family, and generous supporters,

It is with deep sorrow that I share the heartbreaking news that Jeff passed away in March. After a long and courageous battle, he left this world surrounded by love, with my mom, Karen, by his side—just as she had been every step of the way.

This past month has been incredibly difficult and overwhelming for my mom. Losing Jeff, her partner of over 31 years, has left an unimaginable void in her heart and life. On top of the emotional toll, she is now navigating the financial aftermath of caregiving, loss, and the day-to-day expenses that continue to come.

While it’s never easy to ask, I’m reaching out once more to ask for support during this painful transition. Any contributions—no matter how small—will go directly to helping my mom cover her basic living expenses, catch up on bills, and begin to rebuild in the wake of this devastating loss.

If you’re not in a position to donate, sharing this page with others who may be able to help is deeply appreciated. Your kindness, prayers, and generosity have already meant the world to us, and we are forever grateful for this community’s compassion.

Thank you for holding us in your hearts.

With love and gratitude,

Reesie
