We are reaching out during one of the hardest moments our family has faced. On July 2, 2026, we lost our beloved mother, fiancé, sister, cousin, and niece, Tessa, who touched so many lives with her courageous spirit, warm voice, witty humor, and infectious laughter.

As we come together to say goodbye, we’re asking for help covering the costs of cremation and a repast to gather family and friends in celebration of her life. These expenses have come at a difficult time, and any support — whether a contribution or simply sharing this page — means more than words can say. Funds will go toward cremation services and repast/gathering costs, including the venue and food.

Tessa will be deeply missed by her three children, family members, friends, and the community. We are so grateful for any support, and even more for the love and prayers surrounding our family right now. Thank you for helping us give Tessa the honor and celebration she deserves. With love and gratitude, The Family.
