On May 14th, our family experienced the unthinkable — my brother, Michael, was tragically shot and killed in Seffner, Florida. Our hearts are shattered, and we are struggling to come to terms with this sudden and senseless loss.

Michael was the kind of person who lit up every room he entered. He loved his family deeply, especially his nephews, and he had a gift for making people laugh and smile. If you needed him, he was there — no questions asked. His kindness, humor, and loyalty made him someone you could always count on.

Now, we are left to honor his memory and say goodbye far sooner than we ever imagined. We’re asking for help to cover funeral expenses and give Michael the respectful and loving farewell he deserves.

No donation is too small — every bit helps us take one step closer to laying him to rest. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this with others who may be able to support or simply send a prayer our way.

Thank you for your love, support, and kindness during this heartbreaking time.

With gratitude,

Ariel and Family
