Help us lay Melanie to rest ️ Melanie would have turned 25 years old on May 24th, 2025, and has tragically passed away on May 20th, 2025.
Anyone who knows Melanie knows that she had one of the toughest upbringings. From being bounced around from foster home to foster home, suffering abuse and neglect her entire life, nothing came easy for her. Melanie struggled with drug addiction and homelessness for the past few years, making the hand she was dealt even harder to handle. Despite everything, you would always see Melanie with a HUGE smile on her face, and goofy spirit, lighting up everyone’s life.
Melanie has left behind a young son, Benjamin Rich Castillo, 3 years old, and a family who loves and misses her SO MUCH. Please help us lay her to rest and give her a proper burial. We appreciate all of your support in this extremely tough time.
