This GoFundMe is for my dear friend, Edward Ray, who I have come to know through our employment. Ed is one of the most wonderful people I have ever met. His beautiful wife Lentieria, age 33, unfortunately lost her battle to stage 4 metastatic breast cancer on September 10, 2025 at 11:16am.

Tieri was a vibrant soul who adored her husband and children. We will forever remember her infectious smile, phenomenal baked goods, keen eye for décor, and unwavering love for her entire family.

She leaves behind her sweet spirit and also their 3 children, Noah, Liam and Chesni (ages 12, 6 and 2). Ed is trying his best to keep their children’s lives as stable as possible while also dealing with the heartbreak of losing his wife.

As we know, bills are never-ending. Ed is trying to pay the mortgage on their home, all essential daily expenses, on top of the overwhelming medical bills on his income alone.

We’ve started this GoFundMe to help lift some of the financial weight from his shoulders during this devastating time. Our hope is that with this support, Ed can focus on grieving, healing, and caring for their children without the added strains of immediate financial worries.

Any amount you’re able to give will go directly to Ed. If donating isn’t possible for you right now, please consider sharing this fundraiser with others who may be able to assist.

Your kindness, prayers and love mean more than words can ever express. Together, we can surround Ed and his children with support, comfort, and hope as they face the days ahead.
