My name is Sarah Feeney. I am a family friend of the Grande Family. They have suffered an unimaginable loss. On November 12, the Grande family lost their 14-year-old son, Gabriel, in a tragic accident while he was out doing what he loves—riding his bike. Gabe was a true light in this world. Our incredibly bright, determined, creative, and passionate boy left his beautiful mark on the hearts of so many. He was a goofball at heart, making everyone around him smile. A passionate and avid mountain bike rider, Gabe excelled in the sport and was always working to improve and beat his friends in races. Gabriel was a beloved student at Bradshaw Mountain High School, and former student at Glassford Hill Middle School, Liberty Traditional School, and Mountain View Elementary School. The Prescott Valley community and many around the country are devastated by this loss.

The Grandes are in great financial need. They will be out of work for an extended period of time and will have many funeral expenses, medical bills, among other needs. The funds will go directly to the beneficiary, Grande’s, so they can use it for the above listed expenses. We appreciate your support!
