Hello, my name is Andrew and I am the husband to the eldest daughter Desiree and brother in law to the sister that was directly involved in this tragedy. My wife asked me to create this gofundme so she can focus on mourning the loss of her mother and sister. Our hearts are broken as we share the tragic loss of a loving mother and her daughter, whose lives were taken by an act of unimaginable violence. This devastating loss has left behind their surviving children, who are now facing the world without the people who meant everything to them.

As my wife is next of kin, we have joint bank accounts and the proceeds will be distributed equally to her and my sister in law. This fundraiser is to support the surviving siblings as they begin the long journey of healing—helping with immediate needs (funeral services), counseling, living expenses, and creating some stability during an incredibly painful time. Any donation, no matter the size, and even sharing this page, is a way to show love, support, and remind them they are not alone.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and prayers during this unthinkable tragedy.
