On Tuesday, 5 August 2025, Frances and Chase welcomed their beautiful twin boys into the world — Carter Louis Michael and Cageon Louis Joseph.

While Carter fills their hearts with joy, their precious angel Cageon passed peacefully into heaven in the early hours of Wednesday, 6 August 2025.

This has been an unimaginable time for Chase and Fran — a moment where joy and grief have arrived hand in hand.

They are navigating the delicate balance of celebrating Carter’s arrival while mourning the heartbreaking loss of Cageon.

Anyone who knows Chase knows his kindness, selflessness, and willingness to help others without hesitation. If the roles were reversed, he would be the first to stand up and offer support. Now, it’s our turn to do the same for him and his family.

We have created this GoFundMe to help ease the financial pressures that come with such an unexpected and heartbreaking situation — from funeral costs to time away from work, and the many unforeseen expenses that arise during such a difficult period.

No parent should have to endure what Chase and Fran are going through. While nothing can take away their pain, we can rally around them with love, care, and generosity to help lighten the load in whatever way we can.

Every donation, no matter the size, is a gesture of compassion that will make a meaningful difference. If you are unable to contribute financially, your thoughts, prayers, and messages of support are just as deeply valued.

Together, let’s show Chase, Fran, and their family that they are not alone in their grief, and that their community stands beside them in love and solidarity.

Rest peacefully, sweet Cageon. You will always be loved.
