Hi everyone, I hope this message finds you all in good health and peace of mind. I know there are so many loving people willing and asking to lend a hand in sending my older brother Duke off in a celebration of his life that's just as big and beautiful as his personality.

Duke Rivera was one of the warmest and kindest souls there was and his presence brought so much joy to the spaces that he was in. His laugh, his smile, his sense of humor, his charisma, and his love for people will forever be his legacy that we will cherish and carry within us til the day we join him. Duke leaves behind family, friends, and a community that loved him deeply, and his presence will be sorely missed by us all.

These funds will firstly go towards covering any funeral expenses, with any extra money being saved by me, his little brother, to ensure the future well-being of his two daughters.

Thank you extensively as we navigate this immense loss.
