On August 12th, our son Kaden was taken from this world in a tragic accident. The loss of this beautiful soul has been devastating for his parents, our family, his friends, and his schoolmates. Kaden was a bright light, and he will forever be in our hearts.

We are raising funds to help cover Kaden's funeral arrangements. Any remaining funds will go toward setting up scholarships in his name for graduating seniors at Portage Northern and Portage Central Schools. Kaden had close friends at both schools, and this is one way we hope to honor his memory and the friendships that meant so much.

In lieu of flowers, donations are also being directed to the Portage Northern High School Band Program.

Thank you for your support during this heartbreaking time. Any donation or share of this fundraiser will help us with Kaden's arrangements and create something meaningful in his name for students in the years ahead.
