My name is Rick, and I am creating this fundraiser for my family after the recent and unexpected passing of my father. We are heartbroken as we try to process this loss, and at the same time, we are facing the legal steps that come with settling his affairs. In Louisiana, we need to open a succession so we can move forward with selling our family home, and the lawyer fees for this process are more than we can manage on our own right now.

The funds from this fundraiser will go directly toward covering those lawyer fees so my family can take the necessary next steps during this difficult time. This support would help ease some of the financial stress we are carrying while we grieve and work through everything that needs to be done. Any donation, no matter the size, would mean so much to us. If you are not able to give, please consider sharing our fundraiser and keeping our family in your thoughts. Thank you for your kindness, support, and compassion during such a painful time.
