My name is Chris Ameneiro, and I’m raising funds in memory of my wife, Lina. We were together for 16 years, building a life full of love, laughter, and faith. She was my best friend, the center of our home, and the most devoted mom to our two kids. For the past several years, I was also her caregiver as she fought cancer with courage, grace, and a strength that amazed everyone around her.

Lina gave everything she had for her family, and her work. Even on the hardest days, she found ways to make people feel cared for. She’d worry about others before herself, still checking on friends, still making sure the kids were smiling. That’s who she was —giving, selfless, and full of light.

Many of you have asked how you can help. This fundraiser will go toward funeral costs, medical bills, and helping our family get through the next few months as we adjust to life without her. Our goal is $15,000 to cover these immediate needs and give us some breathing room to heal.

Thank you for every prayer, message, and act of kindness. Knowing how much she was loved and how many people she touched means everything to us right now. We’ll keep honoring her by living the way she taught us: with love, faith, and care for others.
