<div>With heavy hearts, we share that our beloved dad and husband has passed away unexpectedly. He was a loving father, a steady presence, and someone who always put his family first. His loss has left an enormous hole in our lives that words can’t fully express.

<div>As we grieve, we are also facing the reality of funeral and memorial expenses, along with day-to-day living costs during this incredibly difficult time. In lieu of flowers, our family has created this GoFundMe to help ease some of that financial burden so we can focus on honoring his life and supporting one another as we heal.

<div>Any contribution, no matter the size, is deeply appreciated. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page or keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers means just as much. Thank you for your kindness, love, and support during one of the hardest moments of our lives.

<div>Funeral will be held at Bright Funeral Home in Wake Forest, NC, on 12/28/25 between 2-4pm. We invite you to join us in celebrating and honoring my dad’s life. If you knew him, you knew his love for a vibrant Hawaiian shirt—it was part of his joy and spirit. In that same spirit, we encourage you to wear a Hawaiian shirt if you have one as a joyful tribute to him.

If you don’t have a Hawaiian shirt, we would still love for everyone to wear color as we gather to celebrate his life, laughter, and legacy.

Your presence means so much to our family, and we look forward to remembering him together.
