In support of Brian, Brady and Ellie Kraegel

On December 7th, 2020, Carrie Kraegel passed away from a rare and aggressive form of lung cancer at the age of 42. Carrie was an active and loving mother who enjoyed spending quality time with her two children, Brady (14) and Ellie (11). 

While we cannot ever alleviate the emptiness, sadness and overwhelming heartbreak that comes with losing a parent, we can try to lessen the financial burden and stress. Please help us to support Brady, Ellie, and their dad, Brian Kraegel, as he begins his role as their sole parent and provider. Brian is a divorced and single parent, who had previously been a stay-at-home dad for more than 10 years, dedicated to raising Brady and Ellie. He now faces the difficult task of supporting his kids through their unimaginable grief.





All of the funds raised here will go directly to Brian, Brady and Ellie to help them to get on their feet after this unfathomable loss. They will support living expenses, cost of activities for Brady and Ellie, and towards future educational costs. Brian has decided he would also like to donate a portion of the donations toward cancer research and funding. 

While monetary contributions in any amount are immensely appreciated, we realize everyone may not be in a position to contribute right now. You can also help so much by simply sharing this campaign on your social media pages or via email, or through networking and sharing connections that could help Brian find meaningful employment. Any and all kinds of compassion are welcome.
