We are heartbroken to share that our dad passed away suddenly in a devastating accident involving his truck.

This loss has completely shaken our family. He was not only a father, but a partner, a provider, and someone who meant so much to all of us.

Our dad was truly one of a kind and he was *so cool*. He lived life fully and had the kind of energy people were drawn to. He was a well known dirt bike racer with incredible stories from the track, and that world was such a big part of who he was. Some of his best memories are of him at the race track, doing what he loved most.

More than anything, he was an amazing grandpa. He was a huge part of his grandkids’ lives. They absolutely adored him, and he adored them right back. He showed up, he made memories, and he gave them a kind of love they will carry with them forever.

The way we lost him was unexpected and traumatic, and we are still trying to process that he is gone.

Right now, we are facing the overwhelming reality of planning his arrangements while also trying to support our mom through this unimaginable loss. On top of that, there are legal matters we must navigate due to the circumstances of his passing.

We are asking for help to cover:

• Funeral and memorial expenses

• Immediate support for our mom as she adjusts to life without him

• Legal fees related to pursuing justice

If you are able to donate, share, or keep our family in your thoughts, it would mean more than we can express. Every bit of support helps lighten the weight we are carrying right now.

We would like to try to hold a service at a racetrack to honor him in a way he would have been proud.

Thank you for standing with us during this incredibly difficult time.
