Michael was born on August 8, 1989, and was the only child of my Aunt Donna. He grew up in the Benicia and Vallejo area, surrounded by family and friends who loved him dearly. Michael was a devoted father to his two daughters, Navaeha and Mikaela, and always put his family first. He recently moved to Nevada to pursue his passions for cooking as a chef and for music as an artist, always striving to make his dreams a reality.

Tragically, Michael's passing was unexpected, leaving our family heartbroken and in need of support. We want to bring him home from Nevada so that his daughters and my Aunt Donna can lay him to rest and find peace. Giving Michael a proper homegoing is important to us, and we want to honor his memory in the place he grew up and loved.

The funds raised will help cover the costs of travel to bring Michael home, funeral expenses, the repass, and provide support for his daughters during this difficult time. Any contribution, no matter the amount, will make a difference and help our family come together to celebrate Michael's life and legacy. We are deeply grateful for your kindness and support.
