I am organizing this fundraiser as his sister. Funds will first go toward covering my brother’s funeral and burial expenses. Any remaining donations will go directly to our mother and his three children to help support them in the months ahead.

Our family is heartbroken to share that we lost Steve far too soon. He was just weeks away from his 33rd birthday on June 11th, and he leaves behind three children who were his entire world, along with parents who adored him and a family that will never be the same.

Steve was a nurse, someone who chose a life of caring for others. That same heart showed up every single day at home. He was a devoted father who sacrificed everything for his kids. They were his reason, his joy, his proudest accomplishment.

We are raising funds to cover funeral and burial expenses, and to help support his three children in the difficult months ahead. No child should have to lose their dad this young, and no family should have to carry this weight alone.

If you knew Steve, you know how much love he gave to this world. Anything you can give- a donation, a share, a prayer, a memory of him in the comments—means more than we can say.

Thank you for holding our family up right now.
