On what was meant to be one of the happiest milestones of his young life, Precious Sherman experienced an unimaginable loss when her beloved son, Deon Louelle Wiley III, tragically passed away on the night of his prom. A night filled with celebration quickly turned into heartbreak for their family, friends, and community. Deon was deeply loved, full of promise, and had a bright future ahead of him.

The impact of this loss has been felt by everyone who knew Deon. Precious and her family are now facing not only the emotional pain of saying goodbye, but also the practical challenges that come with such a sudden tragedy.

There are also many unexpected financial burdens that arise in times like these, and your support can help ease some of that stress.

Most importantly, this fundraiser is a way for the community to stand beside Precious and remind her that she is not alone during this difficult journey. Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference and show her family that they are surrounded by love and compassion.
