Hello, my name is Pa Jai, the 3rd youngest daughter of 14 kids. My family came here to the US in 2005 and have been in MN ever since. Yesterday, 10/30/2025, my baby brother, Xengcha Thao, who was only 20 years old, suddenly passed. My family is heartbroken. Even though he was the youngest boy, he was always the one who was more mature, who put everyone else before him, and was always looking out for others.

He was so kind and had so much gratitude. He never got to see how big, wide, and beautiful the world was. He never got to live life to the fullest and the way he wanted. If there was anyone out of us who was going to be successful in the future, it was going to be him who always had the courage to do better and be better and whom just wanted to live a simple and easy life.

Now that he is gone so suddenly, we were unprepared for it. We are asking for any help you can give to make this hard time easier as we plan his funeral and send him on his way to join our other brother and our grandparents.

It's never easy asking for help and we would rather not be in this position if we didn't have to. Your help, no matter how little, would mean so much to us and help us put our baby brother to rest. Thank you.
