EJ's Journey: Celebrating a Life of Joy

Donation protected

Honoring “EJ” Eric Cliffton Cado Jr.

With the heaviest hearts, we share the devastating loss of our beloved son, EJ.

EJ, a light in every room he entered. He had a rare and beautiful gift—the power to bring smiles, even on the hardest days. He is the glue that brought our family closer, always climbing into our arms to give comfort without hesitation. His love for dancing, music, running, and hugs filled our home with endless joy. He is the most funny , active, happiest little fighter we’ve ever known.

Born with Down syndrome and a congenital heart condition, he showed incredible strength from the very beginning. He underwent heart surgery at 1 years old and fought through it like the warrior he is. On Wednesday ,February 5th, our lives changed forever as we were told the unimaginable, that he was gone. His 3rd birthday is a month away, March 16th.

We are shattered. As we navigate this unimaginable loss, we are asking for help to give our sweet boy the funeral and memorial he deserves. Any contribution, no matter how small, will help us honor his life and memory. If you’re unable to donate, we would deeply appreciate your prayers, love, and shares.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for any support you can give. We love you, EJ forever and always.
