On August 19, 2026, our lives changed forever. Our beautiful mothers life was tragically taken away at only 49 years old after being struck by a drunk driver while riding her motorcycle.

There truly are no words that can describe the heartbreak of losing our mom so suddenly. She was so much more than our mother—she was a loving, caring, selfless woman who left an impact on everyone fortunate enough to know her.

Our mom had an incredible heart for people. She was the kind of person who would show up whenever someone needed a helping hand, without hesitation and without expecting anything in return. If she saw someone stranded or struggling on the side of the road, she was the person who would stop and ask if they were okay. That was simply who she was.

Motorcycling was also a very special part of her life. She was deeply involved in the motorcycle community and helped lead a group dedicated to empowering and supporting female riders. She encouraged women to be strong, confident, fearless, and connected. The riding community became an extended family to her, and seeing the way that community has come together to honor her has meant more to us than we could ever express.

Since her passing, her story has been shared on the news, and we have been overwhelmed by the amount of love, support, and respect being shown for our mother. Hearing people’s stories about her and seeing just how many lives she touched has reminded us that her legacy extends far beyond what we ever realized.

Our mother did not have any other family here in the United States besides us, her two children. As we grieve the sudden and unimaginable loss of our mom, the responsibility of arranging her funeral and laying her to rest has fallen on the two of us.

We are creating this GoFundMe to help raise funds for our mother’s funeral and memorial expenses so that we can give her the beautiful and dignified farewell she deserves. Her funeral will be open to everyone who wishes to come celebrate her life, honor her memory, and stand beside the community that loved her.

Every donation, share, prayer, message, and act of support means more to us than words can say. If you are unable to donate, simply sharing this page and helping us keep her memory alive would mean just as much.

We know our mom is smiling down from Heaven right now, seeing everyone who has shown up for her and witnessing just how deeply she was loved and honored.

Mom, we will carry your love, your strength, your kindness, and your beautiful spirit with us for the rest of our lives. Your ride may have ended here, but the impact you made on this world will continue through every person whose life you touched.

Forever loved. Forever honored. Forever our Mom.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us honor her life and give her the farewell she deserves.
