Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

We are heartbroken to share the devastating news of the unexpected passing of our beloved Andrea Lerma-O’Hearn, my Mama, who suffered a massive stroke the day after Christmas. She was resting comfortably at home in her final days and passed away peacefully in her sleep January 6th. My mom Andrea was a beautiful and pure soul who brought immense joy, laughter, and love to everyone she met. Her presence was a gift, and her kindness and vibrant spirit touched countless lives, leaving a lasting impact on all who knew her. She will be missed more deeply than words can express. Our family is shattered without our shining light, Andrea.

This year has been especially devastating to our family. In October 2024, we lost my dear friend Josh and we never imagined we would have to bury another family member so soon. The pain of these fresh wounds, coupled with the unexpected and unimaginable loss has left us overwhelmed and struggling to cope.

In this incredibly difficult time, my Dad Maury and I are reaching out for support to help cover the unexpected expenses of Andrea’s final days. The funds raised will go toward final wishes and burial expenses, memorial services, and other costs associated with celebrating Andrea’s life and her final wishes.

Our family deeply appreciates your support during this heartbreaking time. Every contribution, no matter the size, will help alleviate this financial strain and allow us to focus on grieving and healing from this unimaginable loss. If you are unable to contribute, sharing this campaign with your family and friends would mean the world to us.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your love and support.

With love,

Katie O’Hearn & Family
