On December 5th, our hearts were shattered by the sudden and unexpected passing of Matthew “Matt” Milliard. Matt was a son, a partner, a friend, and a man who fought hard to rebuild his life. After years of struggle, he found peace, purpose, and love with Danae McKenna. Together, they were building a future filled with laughter, family, and stability.

Matt worked tirelessly and carried the weight of providing for their young household. He was proud, determined, and hopeful — the Matt we all knew and loved had truly come back. His passing has left not only deep emotional devastation but also overwhelming financial hardship for Danae, who now faces the burden of rent, bills, and debt on her own.

We are asking for help to ease this unimaginable burden. Every donation, no matter the size, will go directly toward helping Danae stay afloat as she navigates life without Matt — covering essential living expenses, transportation, and the costs of rebuilding her life in the wake of tragedy. The accident that took Matt’s life also totaled Danae’s vehicle, leaving her without transportation at a time when she needs stability most. Your support will allow her to grieve and heal without the constant worry of financial strain.

If you knew Matt, you know how deeply he cared for others. Helping Danae now is a way to honor his heart, his love, and his fight to make life better for those around him.

Thank you for your compassion, prayers, and generosity.
