-update:

As of May 15th, no funeral or burial arrangements can be made until $7,000 is paid in full to W.T. Wilson Funeral Chapel in Rainsville, AL. Jensen's mother is in on a fixed income, and this has been such a sudden loss, his family is struggling greatly to raise this large amount. I realize that everyone is struggling these days, but if you could find it within your heart to make even a small donation, it would mean the world to us and make all the difference. If you're more comfortable donating to Jensen's brother Mitchell or the funeral home directly, that's equally as appreciated and I will update the goal difference here on GoFundMe accordingly. Thank you to the two kind souls who have already donated. I had begun to lose hope as this reflected a zero each time I've checked, praying for a miracle. You're never prepared for loss in this magnitude, and you cannot properly grieve until your loved one is laid to rest with a fitting service to honor their legacy.

Please help support the family of Frankie Jensen Thrasher

On the morning of May 12th, the

world lost a rare and radiant soul-

Frankie Jensen Thrasher, known by

many as simply Jensen or Bubba. He

was a fiercely loving brother, a devoted friend, and a gifted musician whose heart lived in every note he sang and played. His passing was sudden and unexpected, and has left his family and those closest

to him in deep mourning.

Jensen never met a stranger, he was

the kind of person who would literally give you the shirt off his back, the kind of soul who made you feel safe and cared for just by being nearby. A true gentle giant at nearly 7 feet tall, he stood even taller in spirit. Whether it was through his music, his laughter, or his unwavering loyalty, he left a mark on every life he touched.

As we grieve this unimaginable loss,

we're asking for help to ease the

great financial burden of funeral and

memorial expenses for Jensen's

immediate family. No one is ever prepared for this kind of heartbreak, and EVERY CONTRIBUTION -no matter how small- will help lay Jensen to rest with the dignity and love he so deeply deserves.

What he gave us will never be

lost. His voice still echoes in the

music he left behind. His memory

wrapped in laughter and late-night

conversations, will continue to live in us.

Please help us remember him the way

he deserves to be remembered: with

grace, with honor, and with love. Thank you for taking the time to read this far, and I ask if you cannot make a donation, please share so his campaign can reach others. If you are religious, please pray for the Thrasher family during this time. Thank you all in advance.
