On behalf of Mandy Thompson, this GoFundMe has been created by her close friends Chenoa Marklevitz and Brad Witvoet to support Mandy during an unimaginable loss.

Mandy’s beloved son, Parker Thompson, passed away unexpectedly at just 19 years old. Parker was a bright, kind, and deeply loved young man, and a second-year student at Caltech, where he was pursuing his future with passion and determination.

Parker was not only a devoted son, but also a loving older brother to Miles and Ryan, who looked up to him in countless ways. The bond between Parker and his family was strong, and his loss has left a profound void in their lives.

This fundraiser is intended to help ease the financial burdens Mandy is facing during this devastating time including time away from work, and the many unexpected costs that follow such a sudden loss.

More than anything, this is a way for friends, family, and the broader community to surround Mandy, Miles, and Ryan with support, compassion, and care.

Any contribution, no matter the amount, is deeply appreciated. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this page or keeping the Thompson family in your thoughts.

Thank you for helping honor Parker’s life and for supporting his family during this incredibly difficult time.

All funds go directly to Mandy to support her and her family as they grieve and begin to navigate life after this tragic loss.
