With heavy hearts, we share that Autumn Dusté Wyson Vance passed away unexpectedly on March 10, 2026, at just 26 years old.

Autumn was a light in every sense of the word. She had a contagious laugh, a vibrant spirit, and a rare ability to make people feel truly seen and loved. Whether she was making you laugh or showing up when it mattered most, she left a lasting impact on everyone she met.

At the center of her world was her husband, Austin, and their two dogs. They built a life together filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments. He didn’t just lose his wife, he lost his best friend and partner in everything.

This loss was sudden and unimaginable.

Right now, Austin and both families are navigating overwhelming grief while also facing unexpected financial burdens.

We are raising $15,000 to help cover funeral and memorial expenses and to support the families during this incredibly difficult time.

If you feel called to give, any amount truly helps more than you know.

If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page can make a meaningful difference.

Now is the time to come together for Autumn, Austin, and for both families.

Thank you for your support, your prayers, and your kindness.
