On Monday, October 6, 2025, our beloved father, Thornell Grubbs, peacefully passed away. He was more than just a father—he was a mentor, a friend, and a light in the lives of everyone who knew him. His laughter, wisdom, and unconditional love touched so many people, and losing him has left a void in our hearts that can never truly be filled.

As his son, my name is Mark Bell, and I am reaching out during this difficult time to humbly ask for your support. The suddenness of his passing has left our family unprepared for the financial costs of laying him to rest. We want to honor his life with the dignity and love he deserves, but funeral expenses and related costs are overwhelming.

Your donation, no matter how small, will help us cover these expenses and give my father the farewell he deserves. If you are unable to give, please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers and share this fundraiser with others.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your kindness, love, and support during this heartbreaking time. Together, we can give Thornell the remembrance he deserves and carry forward his legacy of love and strength.

With gratitude,

Mark Bell and Family
