Hi everyone,

My name is Michael, and I’m Emily’s brother. I’m reaching out on behalf of my sister and her three amazing children—Wyatt, Evelyn, and Audrey—as they face the heartbreaking loss of Dustin, a loving husband and father.

On Friday, July 4th at 5:56 p.m. Dustin left his earthly body and entered the kingdom of Heaven to spend the rest of eternity with Jesus. Dustin was a complex and deeply loved man, with a big heart and a sharp sense of humor. Though his journey included struggles, his love for his family and friends was unwavering and clear to all who knew him. The outpouring of messages we’ve received speaks volumes about the impact he had on so many lives.

We’ve created this GoFundMe to support Emily and the kids through this incredibly painful time. Your generosity will help cover funeral costs, medical bills, childcare, and everyday expenses as they begin to rebuild and find a new path forward.

Whether you’re able to donate or simply share this page, your support means the world. Thank you for standing with Emily and the kids during this difficult chapter.

With heartfelt thanks,

Michael
