Our hearts are completely shattered as we mourn the tragic and unexpected passing of Kimberly Nicole Varela, who was only 23 years old. Kimberly was a beloved mother, daughter, sister, and friend who was taken far too soon. She leaves behind two young children, Rene Jr. and Khloe, who now have to face life without their mama. Kimberly was also pregnant at the time of her passing, making this loss even more devastating for the family and loved ones who are grieving not only Kimberly, but also the precious life she was carrying. At just 23, Kimberly had so much life ahead of her, and her children deserved many more years of love, memories, and everyday moments with her.

No family is ever prepared for a tragedy like this or for the sudden expenses that come with it. This fundraiser is being created to help ease some of the financial burden on Kimberly’s family during this unimaginable time. Donations will help cover funeral and memorial expenses and provide support for Rene Jr. and Khloe in the days ahead. If you are able to give, no amount is too small and every act of kindness means so much. If you are not able to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser and keeping Kimberly’s children, family, and loved ones in your prayers. Please help honor Kimberly’s life and surround the children she leaves behind with love and support.
