Hi, my name is Genesis, and I’m writing on behalf of my niece and nephew, Nini (19) and Josmael (21), who recently lost their father, Jose “Coco” Garay, unexpectedly.

As young adults just beginning their lives, they are now faced with the emotional and financial burden of planning and paying for their father's funeral—something no one should have to face alone, especially at their age.

Coco wasn’t only a father but a son, a brother, an uncle, and so much more to so many people. His passing has left a huge void in their lives, and we want to honor his memory in the way he deserves.

Unfortunately, like many families, there were no funds set aside for funeral expenses. We are hoping to raise enough to help cover the cost of the funeral service, burial, and other related expenses.

Every donation—no matter how small—will go directly to Josmi and Nini to help them through this incredibly difficult time. If you’re not in a position to give, please consider sharing this campaign. Your kindness and support mean the world to our family right now.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
