Hi, everybody.

Jon Alec Ramos and I are raising funds on behalf of Matt Laris Santos and his family, who recently lost McKenzie Luke Santos, Matt's brother and a beloved son. The funds collected will go towards McKenzie's funeral, and any additional funds will support Matt and his family as they grieve this sudden and tragic loss. The deadline for funeral expenses is May 13th, but any additional funds that are collected after this deadline will go straight to the family.

Attached below is a message from Matt Laris.

Thank you for reading.

“Hello, friends and family, my name is Matt Laris. I am the older brother of McKenzie Luke Santos. On Saturday, May 2nd, Ken lost his life unexpectedly in a fatal car accident. He was the best and only younger brother I have ever had, and this news was a surprise to me, my parents, and all of his dear friends and family. Ken was a youthful, energetic, and very ambitious young man who lived his life to the fullest, doing exactly what he loved. As his older brother, I ask on behalf of my family for any support you can give us to help us fund his funeral service. His celebration of life will be held on what would have been his 21st birthday on May 16th, as well as a second service on May 19th. Whether you are donating $1, $50, or even just sharing the link to spread the word, any help would be appreciated. Any extra will be put towards his favorite project car as a way for my family to keep a part of him with us close to home. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for helping honor Ken and the legacy he has left to all of his friends and family.” - Matt Laris Santos
