<div>On January 14, 2026, our family lost my father in a tragic bus accident on Highway 99. He was one of six victims, leaving behind a grieving family, including three children and five grandchildren. His sudden passing has left our family devastated, especially my 16-year-old brother, who also recently lost his mother right before the holidays.

<div>My dad was a veteran, a creative soul, and a friend to everyone he met. He loved music, always singing wherever he went, and had a remarkable talent for making and fixing things—from jewelry to cars and houses. You could always find him walking, talking, and sharing his warm smile with anyone nearby. He had a way of making friends instantly. His creativity and words of wisdom touched everyone around him.

</div>
<div>We are raising funds to help cover cremation, any final expenses, as well as any fees involved in handling his affairs. After these expenses are taken care of, the remaining funds will be set aside for my younger brother, to help support his future and give him some stability after losing both parents at such a young age.

<div>We are deeply grateful for any support, whether it’s a donation or simply sharing this page. Every contribution honors my dad’s memory and helps ensure that his youngest child has a foundation for the future despite this unimaginable loss.
