Cristian Manole Memorial Fund

Hi, my name is Manuela Caita and I am creating this fundraising page in memory of our beloved friend Cristian Manole whose passing left us with broken hearts.

Christian’s passing has left a deep hole in the lives of everyone who knew and loved him. He was a kind and generous soul, full of potential, with a deep love for his family. His younger brother Paul shared these heartfelt words that capture just a glimpse of the grief they are experiencing:

“Hi, my name is Paul. It doesn’t even feel real to say, but my older brother Christian has passed.

As his younger brother, it’s incredibly painful to accept that I will one day be older than he ever got to be. That I have a life ahead of me he won’t be part of. I can no longer make new memories with Christian — only treasure the ones we already have.

Losing my brother has been the deepest pain I’ve known, but seeing my mom and dad lose their son has been even harder. No parent should ever have to bury their child. They loved Christian unconditionally and never stopped believing in him.

This fundraiser has been started to help cover funeral costs and to ease the financial burden on my parents during this devastating time. Any support — whether through a donation, a share, or simply keeping us in your prayers — means more than I can say.

Thank you for your love and support. God bless.

Paul Manole”

We’re asking for your help to support the Manole family who are facing unimaginable grief along with the heavy financial burden of funeral expenses. No donation is too small, and every bit of kindness makes a difference.

Thank you for your generosity and compassion during this incredibly difficult time.
