We are humbly asking for your help to bury Fourteen-year-old Kevin "KJ" Areneaux who died uunnecessarily in a fire without warning. Here's what we know:

Early Saturday Morning, sometime before 7AM, a three-alarm fire swept through Crosby Square Apartments near Houston, Texas. Kevin “KJ” Arceneaux was having a summer visit with his auntie, Shana May-Jayarathna, and his cousin, Marquelle Broussard. They were all likely sound a sleep in the early morning hours as flames engulfed the entire apartment claiming all three lives. Without warning-fire alarms failing to sound, the infernal gutted the top floor apartment displacing 58 other residents and leaving this family in shambles.

KJ is survived by a large and loving Houston area family that is simply devastated by this tragedy. Our family is seeking help with funeral cost and other related expenes as we face what's to come. Whatever you offer, we appreciate and thank you in advance for your kindness.
