My little brother, Stacey Elmore, was a bright light in our family. Though he was autistic and nonverbal, Stacey had a way of communicating joy through his big smiles and the way he loved to watch TV. His presence brought comfort and happiness to everyone who knew him, and his gentle spirit touched our hearts every day.

A week ago, Stacey passed away unexpectedly. The loss has left our family heartbroken and facing the difficult task of planning his funeral. We want to give Stacey the loving farewell he deserves, but the costs are more than we can manage on our own. Stacey’s life, though quiet, was filled with moments of happiness and love. He taught us patience, compassion, and the importance of cherishing every moment together. Our family is struggling to come to terms with his absence, and we want to honor his memory in the best way we can.

We are reaching out to our community for help. Any support you can offer will go directly toward covering Stacey's funeral expenses and helping our family through this incredibly hard time. Thank you for keeping Stacey in your thoughts and for any kindness you can share.
