On 4/25/2025, Lavonda’s world changed forever when her beloved daughter, Joshlyn, tragically and unexpectedly passed away at just 15 years old. Joshlyn was a bright, beautiful soul who touched the hearts of everyone who knew her. Her laughter, kindness, and spirit will never be forgotten.

No parent is ever prepared to say goodbye to their child. As Lavonda faces unimaginable grief, she also now faces unexpected expenses, including funeral costs, time away from work, and the many other financial burdens that come with such a heartbreaking loss.

We are asking for your support to help ease some of that burden so Lavonda can focus on mourning and healing. Any amount you can give will make a difference, and if you’re unable to donate, sharing this page would mean the world.

Please keep Lavonda and her family in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time. Thank you for your love, support, and kindness.
