Hello, my name is Michelle Gaines, Grandmother of Royal Salim! (Parents: Chris Salim and Desiree Baynes).

Our hearts are shattered as we mourn the unimaginable loss of our precious baby boy (Royal Salim). Though his time with us was far too short, he filled our lives with a love deeper than we ever knew possible. We are holding tightly to the brief but beautiful moments we shared, and we are grateful for the support of those who are lifting us up during this painful time. Many have asked how they can help, and any contribution toward funeral expenses and time away from work would ease the heavy burden we now face. Thank you for keeping our family in your thoughts and for honoring our sweet angel’s memory.
