My name is Sara, and I am a close friend of Casey Buzzard's family. With a heavy heart, I am creating this fundraiser to help support Casey's children and loved ones as they navigate an unimaginable loss.

Just two weeks before her 39th birthday, Casey passed away unexpectedly. At this time, her family is still waiting for answers regarding the cause of her death. The shock of losing someone so vibrant, so full of life, and so deeply loved has left a hole in the hearts of everyone who knew her.

Casey leaves behind her two beautiful children, Bryant and Violet. Bryant is 8 years old and has special needs, and Violet is a newborn. While the family is grieving the loss of a daughter, sister, and friend, they are also facing the heartbreaking reality that these two children will grow up without the woman who loved them more than anything in the world.

Anyone who knew Casey knew she was one of a kind.

She loved thrifting, garage sales, and treasure hunting. Casey had a gift for finding the perfect hidden gem and an incredible eye for style. She could take the latest fashion trend and pair it with the perfect vintage find, creating something uniquely her own. What others overlooked, Casey saw potential in.

She was funny, outspoken, and unapologetically herself. Casey had a fiery personality that could light up a room, and an infectious laugh that was impossible not to join in on. She stood up for what was right, even when it wasn't easy, and she fiercely protected the people she loved, especially her siblings. If you were lucky enough to be part of Casey's circle, you knew you always had someone in your corner.

She also loved making memories. Whether it was a pool day on a hot summer afternoon or heading out for a photoshoot with the kids at the local park or pumpkin patch, Casey knew how to have fun and enjoyed every opportunity to make her children smile. She lived life with passion, humor, and a big heart.

Today, her family is facing not only overwhelming grief but also unexpected financial burdens. Funds raised through this fundraiser will help cover Casey's final expenses, legal fees, and the ongoing needs of Bryant and Violet as the family works to provide stability, care, and support during this difficult transition.

Donations will help with:

Funeral and final expenses

Legal and estate-related costs

Bryant's care and special needs

Essential needs for baby Violet

Daily living expenses and support for the children

Helping create a stable future for the two children Casey loved so deeply

No amount can replace Casey's presence in the lives of those who loved her. But together, we can help ease the burden on her family and provide support for Bryant and Violet as they face a future without their mother.

If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser and keeping Casey's family in your thoughts and prayers. Every share, donation, and kind word means more than we can express.

Thank you for helping us honor Casey's life, support her children, and carry forward the love she poured into the people around her every day.

With gratitude,

Sara Reust, on behalf of Casey Buzzard's family
