Felipe Ruiz JR, a strong man who beamed so bright with positivity, unfortunately passed away on February 11, 2025. He was only 34 years old. We are all doing our best to pitch in, but with your help, we can achieve this goal together. Our goal is to raise 20k but have decided to set the limit to 15k.

Felipe was always the strongest, most positive person we all knew. He always knew what to say when things were at their worst. His soul was so immensely kind, even too caring for his own good at times. He was the light of sunshine that helped us all grow. He was the sun that rose and tackled the night like it was no problem. Felipe spent so long putting in the hard work and effort not only for his own life but for others. When he wanted something, he strived for it like nothing else mattered. In the end, he finally got it. He got his own place with a kind-hearted roommate. He found a partner, a lover, who could deliver that love and care that Felipe deserved more than anything.

None of us would've expected this to happen. It all happened so suddenly. Too soon, in fact. He had an entire life in front of him, surrounded by people who all held him up and continued to walk with him on this new path. We might not have all the answers, but something we do have is love and passion. Our love for him burns hotter than anything else, which is why we ask you for this favor of aiding us with his burial and memorial services.

Let's all find it in our hearts to help and support Felipe, just as he did for everyone else.

(Service date is pending for 2/23 - 2/24 all funds from this fundraiser will be going directly to funeral expenses)
