My dad has been in my life since I was 2 years old. He stepped up for me in a way I’m forever grateful for, always providing love, guidance, and support. He was the kind of person who put family first and made sure I always felt cared for, no matter what. Losing him has left a huge hole in my heart, and I miss him dearly every day.

On January 1st, 2026, my dad passed away suddenly from a heart attack. He didn’t have life insurance, and our family was not prepared for the unexpected costs that come with saying goodbye. The expenses for his service and cremation have been overwhelming, and it’s been difficult to manage everything while grieving such a tremendous loss. He is survived by 6 children and 18 grandchildren.

If the community was to rally around my dad's memory, it would most definitely bring a sense of comfort and support to me and my family during this tough time. It would show that his impact and legacy extended beyond just my family, and that his life had a ripple effect on the people around him even if they’ve never met.

I am reaching out for help during this difficult time. The funds raised will go directly toward covering the costs of my dad’s service and cremation, allowing us to honor his memory and give him the farewell he deserves. Thank you for your support during our time of need. We appreciate anything you can give, even if it’s just sharing this fundraiser. Again, we thank you. God bless you.
