On August 21, 2026, Patrick Aasheim passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind his son, Blake, and a large martial arts community that loved him dearly. Pat was a 4th-degree black belt and a Master Instructor at Exclusive Martial Arts in the Littleton and Lakewood areas of Colorado, a school he had been a part of for close to 20 years. His stoic humor and warmth were only a small part of the legacy he left behind in his community.

In the wake of his sudden and untimely death, his son, Blake, who lived with his father and was dependent on him, has had his world shaken and turned upside down. At this time, he could use a little extra support to navigate paying for his basic living expenses, as well as helping him grieve peacefully without the stress of worrying about how he will keep a roof over his head.
