Just a mama at a loss for words. Our hearts are completely broken as we share the passing of our beautiful baby boy, Giovanni “Gio” Ray Lopez Young — just nine days away from turning 3.

Born: October 19, 2022

Left our world: October 10, 2025

Gio went into cardiac arrest and was later declared brain dead. Despite every effort to save him, his little body could not hold on. We are now left with unimaginable heartbreak and the difficult task of planning his funeral and covering medical expenses.

Our sweet boy loved music and singing, sports, and playing with his cars that lit up and made sounds. He filled our days with laughter, light, and love.

Your donations, prayers, and kind words mean the world to our family. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us honor our little angel, Giovanni — forever 2 years old, forever loved, forever our light. ️
