I never thought I would ever be doing this for my brother, at least not for a very long time. On January 5th, 2026, Rc passed away, leaving our family and friends heartbroken. For those who knew him, they would tell you he was the kind of person who could make you laugh even on your worst days. He had a knack for getting under your skin in the most playful ways, and his sense of humor was truly one of a kind. Rc was incredibly smart, especially when it came to cars—he seemed to know everything about them. He was a son, a brother, and a father. He was my mother’s firstborn, her pride and joy, and her first everything. To me, he was my first best friend, and to my sister, he was her comfort and safe space whenever she needed him.

We are still in the early stages of planning his funeral, and I don’t have all the details yet. What I do know is that our mom is struggling deeply with this loss, and our family is doing our best to support each other. The funds we raise will go directly toward funeral expenses and helping our family through this incredibly difficult time. If you are able, please consider helping us honor Rc and give him the farewell he deserves. Any support, no matter how small, means so much to us. Thank you for being here for our family.
