Dear friends and family,

It is with the heaviest of hearts that I share the sudden and unexpected passing of my beloved brother, Robert Yeppez. Robert left this world without warning, and our family is still in shock trying to process this painful loss. He was not only a caring brother, but also a devoted father to his only son, Falon.

In moments like this, you're forced to face things you never imagined you'd have to—making decisions you hoped would be decades away. I never thought we’d be planning funeral arrangements for my older brother. The heartbreak is overwhelming, and the weight of this loss is one that no family should have to carry alone.

What makes this even more difficult is that Robert’s 24-year-old son, Falon, is now left to shoulder responsibilities far beyond his years. Overnight, he has found himself in charge of their home, his father’s accounts, and the heavy emotional and financial burdens that come with such a loss.

To help ease some of this unexpected financial pressure, we are setting up a GoFundMe to support Falon with burial costs and other immediate expenses. Your donation—no matter the amount—will help give him some breathing room to grieve and start navigating this new chapter without the added weight of financial stress.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your love, your prayers, and your support during this time of unimaginable grief.

With love and gratitude,

Richard Yeppez
