Help Andrea after tragic loss of mom and brothers

Donation protected

Hi, my name is Narda Lyons. I am fundraising for my niece Andrea Matos pictured on the far left. Andrea 24, is the daughter of Maribel Moran 42 far right, and sister to Ezra Sharp 5 on the left, and Mason Sharp 2 on the right. Andrea, her step-father Wesley, life partner to Maribel and the father to Ezra and Mason, all lived a happy life together in Shawnee raising the two boys together. Wesley, Maribel, Ezra, and Mason were in an unfortunate and tragic boating accident on Saturday June 5th near John Redmond Reservoir in southeast Kansas. The family was in a boat that tipped over near a damn along the river. Despite wearing life jackets, the turbulent water and impact of flipping over caused Maribel, Ezra, and Mason to not survive.

Andrea is getting ready to start aerospace engineering school at the University of Kansas this fall, along with work responsibilities, and this tragedy is going to be a longterm emotional challenge to process. Please help support Andrea in this time of tragic need and show her that she is not alone. Any donations will be used to cover the costs that she will now incur, including funeral costs and any debts of Maribel's that might be passed to Andrea. Myself and the rest of the family are heartbroken, shocked, and devastated and are still struggling to accept this new reality. Any support, no matter how small, will be great appreciated. Thank you.
