Honoring Richard Meadows: Supporting Ally & Kati’s future.
Donation protected
We are deeply saddened to share that Richard Meadows, beloved father, friend, and role model, passed away on October 30, 2024. He leaves behind his beautiful daughter, Ally, whose life was forever changed by his love and care. And her amazing mother Kati Reif, who will be left to be the sole provider for Ally.
Richard was known for his warmth, love of animals, being an amazing father and role model, his great sense of humor, and his ability to fix everything. His bond with Ally was incredibly special. Whether they were sharing their love for space, stars, and the planets, fishing, singing their song “Ally and daddy are buddies and we love each other whole whole bunch”, or dreaming about her future, his priority was always to make her feel loved, supported, and inspired.
In the wake of this loss, we’re raising funds to help support Ally and her mother Kati with daily needs, bills, schooling, grief counseling. With your kindness, we hope to alleviate some of the burdens facing her family as they navigate this difficult time.
Your generosity will honor Richard Meadow’s legacy and help fulfill his greatest wish: to see his daughter thrive. Every donation, big or small, makes a difference. Thank you for supporting Ally and helping her carry her father’s love and spirit forward.
