Riley Warner, our dear father, brother, uncle and friend lost his battle with mental illness and took his life on June 6, 2020. He left behind, his sons, Brandon Frank, Mikey Warner, Damien Warner and Gabriel Warner. He is survived by his mother, Sheila Warner, sister, Angelia Warner and nephew, Cody Warner. His suicide leaves an indelible mark on all our hearts. Families are often left with more questions than answers.  I am asking for help for this family because suicide is an all too often road that the mentally ill take. Families are often taken by surprise and are grieving not just for Riley but for the millions of questions that they will never get the answers too. I'm asking for $5000 to help aid this family in the unexpected funeral expenses that are left to them. All remaining proceeds will be given to help prevent suicide and bring awareness to those suffering in silence. Anyone who says "mental health isn't a problem" is wrong. This family has been torn apart by it. Anything you can find in your hearts to give will help lay Riley to rest and move the needle to ensuring another family doesn't have to face the devastating loss of suicide again. Thank you so much. If you are having suicidal thoughts or know someone who is, please call this number and take that first step towards help.
