My name is Stephanie, and I’m reaching out with a heavy heart after the loss of my twin brother, Stephen Burns. Stephen passed away unexpectedly on January 3, 2026, leaving our family devastated and searching for ways to give him the farewell he deserves. As his twin, the bond we shared was incredibly special, and it’s hard to put into words how much he meant to me and to everyone who loved him.

Stephen was not only my brother but also a devoted father to his children. He was someone who brought laughter and warmth into our lives, and his absence leaves a space that can never be filled. Unfortunately, Stephen did not have life insurance, and our family is now facing the difficult task of bringing him back home to Texas for a proper burial. The costs of transportation and funeral arrangements are more than we can manage on our own.

I’m not the person to usually ask for help, but at this time, my family and I truly need support. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help us honor Stephen’s memory and provide comfort to his children during this incredibly hard time. Thank you for considering helping us give Stephen the respectful goodbye he deserves.
