Leis family devastated by young son's suicide

Donation protected

You hear it more and more these days - children taking their own lives to end the torment endured at the hands of bullies. It hit close to home when work colleagues lost their 14-year-old son this past week. Sadly, we live in a world where being different just isn't accepted. Ayden had autism and the bullying that he experienced throughout his short life left him hopeless and pushed him to the breaking point.

Aydan Christopher Leis, age 14 of Shipshewana, Indiana passed away Thursday, March 25, 2021 at his home. He was the son of Robert and Tami (Moore) Leis and the brother of Kaeleigh and Morgan. obituary here 

The Leis family is expectedly devastated.  Adding insult to injury are the unexpected bills that they are facing. It's hard to fully grieve when experiencing this added anxiety. 


Please help this family if you can. Any amount of money that you can spare will help them with funeral costs, counseling, etc.  If you can't give monetarily, please pray for them as they navigate through what would be any parent's worst nightmare.

Thank you in advance!
