Help Give Ricky a Meaningful Goodbye

Dear friends, family, and compassionate supporters,

As we prepare to say goodbye to my beloved father, we’re reaching out for support to help cover his upcoming funeral and end-of-life expenses. His journey has been one of love, resilience, and courage, and we are deeply grateful for every moment we’ve been able to share with him. We hope to honor him with a farewell that truly reflects the impact he has had on all of us.

About My Father’s Journey

My dad, Ricky, has been through an incredibly tough cancer journey. He fought kidney cancer from 2019 until late 2023, when it transitioned to an aggressive bone cancer that spread like wildfire. He has endured constant chemotherapy and several rounds of radiation. After suffering through two broken shoulders, a broken femur, and a fractured spine, his very painful journey is coming to an end. Our family is now facing the difficult conversation of life without him and the costs we will endure in honoring him properly.

The funds raised will go toward his funeral, memorial arrangements, and other end-of-life expenses. This will allow us to give him a meaningful, dignified farewell without the added stress of financial strain. Any support you can offer—whether through a contribution or by sharing this fundraiser—would be an incredible help and a source of comfort to our family during this time.

Thank you so much for your kindness, love, and support.

With heartfelt gratitude,

The Tubaugh Family
