<div>I am heartbroken to share that my uncle Michael passed away suddenly on September 3, 2025. Michael was a loving father to his two children, McKayla and Riley Dean, and a cherished son, brother, and friend to so many. His warmth, kindness, and unwavering love for his family and friends left a lasting mark on all who knew him.

<div>My family and I are raising funds to support McKayla and Riley as they navigate life without their father. The goal of this GoFundMe is to contribute to the college fund for both children and to help cover additional expenses, such as living costs, sports programs, and other needs that have arisen following Michael’s passing. We hope to honor Michael’s legacy by ensuring his children have the opportunities he would have wanted for them, and every contribution will make a meaningful difference for McKayla and Riley. Thank you all for your prayers and support as we navigate this heartbreaking loss.
