In Loving Memory of Echo Calatrello

Donation protected
It is with the deepest sorrow that we share the heartbreaking news of the sudden passing of our beloved Echo Calatrello who was only 22 years old. On January 10, 2025, she tragically lost her life in a car accident. The news has left her family, friends, and everyone who knew her in complete shock and profound grief.
Echo was the light in every room she entered. Her bubbly personality and infectious laugh touched so many lives. She had a way of making people feel seen, loved, and uplifted—even on their toughest days. Whether she was cracking jokes to brighten someone's mood, offering a listening ear, or simply spreading her joyful energy, she left a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to know her.
At just 22, she had so much life ahead of her—dreams, adventures, and love to give. Losing her so suddenly feels impossibly unfair, and the pain is overwhelming for her family as they navigate this unimaginable loss.
Funeral and memorial expenses are an unexpected burden during this already devastating time. The costs for a proper service—including the funeral home arrangements, casket or urn, transportation, burial/cremation fees, and a gathering to celebrate her life—can quickly add up to thousands of dollars. Her family wants to honor Echo with the beautiful, heartfelt goodbye she deserves, surrounded by the love and memories she created.
Any support you can provide—whether a donation of any amount or simply sharing this page—will make a real difference in easing this financial weight so the family can focus on grieving, remembering, and healing together.
Every contribution helps cover these final expenses and ensures Echo's memory is celebrated in a way that reflects the warmth and brightness she brought to the world.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, prayers, and support during this incredibly difficult time. Your love means more than words can express.
In loving memory of Echo Calatrello
