Omar Cole was a bright, loving 11-year-old who was taken from us far too soon. On his way to school, Omar was tragically hit by his own school bus. He was a good kid who truly loved learning and always looked forward to his days at school. His loss has left a hole in our hearts that can never be filled.

Our family is struggling to cope with this unimaginable tragedy. Omar leaves behind four siblings who witnessed what happened, and no child should ever have to go through something like this. We want to give Omar the farewell he deserves and support his brothers and sisters as they process this loss. Right now, we need all the help we can get to cover funeral expenses and provide care for our family during this difficult time.

No one should have to go through this. I appreciate any help you can give—your support for our family and for Omar Cole means the world to us. Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts and for helping us honor Omar’s memory.
