On July 30, 2025, our beloved Jose Antonio Rivera Lynch IV, a proud U.S. Navy Sailor, was declared Lost at Sea while serving aboard the USS George Washington (CVN-73). At just 19 years old, Jose faithfully served his country with honor, courage, and an unwavering commitment to protecting others.
Jose was more than a sailor — he was a loving son, a cherished brother, and a loyal friend whose laughter and light touched everyone around him. His sudden loss has left our family heartbroken and navigating the unimaginable grief of losing someone so young and full of promise.
We are raising funds to help ease the financial burden on our family during this incredibly difficult time. Donations will go toward funeral and memorial arrangements, travel expenses for family members, and the costs associated with honoring Jose’s life and service.
Your kindness, prayers, and support mean more than words can express. No gift is too small — every act of generosity helps us find strength and healing.
Thank you for standing with us as we honor the life, service, and sacrifice of Jose Antonio Rivera Lynch IV.
“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” – John 15:13
