Our family lost our much-loved son, brother, uncle, and friend, Kieran Daniel Gayle, after a courageous battle with Adrenoleukodystrophy.

Kieran lived 38 earth strong years with us, and every one of them showed his fighting spirit.

Born with cerebral palsy, Kieran faced challenges from day one but he never let anything define or limit him. From a young age he was diagnosed with Addison's Disease and ALD. He met this adversity in the same way aa he did everything else: with strength, determination, and a huge heart!

Kieran lived life full of energy and never stopped doing what he loved! Like his dad he played rugby. Like his uncle and cousins, he played basketball. No matter the obstacles, nothing stopped him from getting involved, pushing himself, and living life on his own terms. He showed everyone around him what resilience truly looks like.

We are raising funds to help cover Kieran’s funeral costs and to give him the amazing send-off he truly deserves. One that reflects the courage, love, and strength he showed throughout his life.

Any contribution, no matter how small, would mean the world to us during this incredibly difficult time. Every bit of help is good help, and we are so grateful for the kindness and support shown to our family.

Thank you for taking the time to read Kieran’s story, for remembering him, and for helping us honour an extraordinary son and brother.
