Our hearts are heavy as our family is facing an unexpected and heartbreaking loss. My sister in law’s father and husband’s step father has passed away. This loss has shaken our family, and all we want right now is to be in New York to say our final goodbyes.

Troy was more than just a father—he was a son, a brother, a uncle, a pop pop, a friend, and someone who touched the lives of those around him with his presence. His passing has left a hole in our hearts, we want nothing more than to be there to say our final goodbyes and celebrate Troy’s life.

As many of you know, these situations bring not only emotional pain but also financial strain. Any contribution—big or small—will go directly toward transportation and funeral costs so that we can be present to grieve and celebrate his life properly.

We are reaching out with humble hearts, asking for any help you can give—whether it’s a donation, sharing this page, or keeping us in your prayers. We are deeply grateful for any support you can provide.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your love, kindness, and generosity. And thank you for keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers during this heartbreaking time.
