Sadie bobo, Victim in I-5 negligent crash, funeral costs

Hi, my name is Echo Staton and I’m helping Jackie Whitt raise money for our dear niece Sadie Bobo’s funeral. It is with deep sorrow that I announce this loss of our precious angel. She was an innocent victim, following a motor vehicle accident on I-5 South, in the early morning hours of July 5th, 2025. Sadie was asleep in the backseat of a car and died at the hands of a negligence driver, who was entrusted to get her home safely. He’s been charged.

Sadie was born on 12/1/2005 and was only 19 years young, and has now been reunited with her father in heaven, Robert Bobo, whom she adored.

Sadie was always known for being vibrant, loving, and kind-hearted, deeply touching the lives of all that knew her. She had the most contagious laugh and was wise beyond her years. Sadie was a cherished daughter, granddaughter, and great-granddaughter and a very loved sister, niece, and cousin. She was also well known in the community and leaves behind many beloved friends, as well as her boyfriend, the father of her new born baby. Many admired her strength and unwavering determination, especially me.

As many of you know, Sadie had to face her family home that burnt down, her father taking his own life, and many other struggles that fell into her lap from a very young age. She was incredibly resilient and overcame every hardship life threw at her. She had more recently weathered a difficult season and was doing so well in her life, and was working as a pharmacy technician until her pregnancy made it too hard to be on her feet.

Sadie was so excited to be a mother to her adorable baby girl, Siyanna Aguilar, who isn’t even a full month old yet. It brings such sadness to our soul knowing that Siyanna will never again be able to experience her mother's loving embrace and will have to battle this harsh world without her mommy at her side. Sadie's mom and brother are devastated beyond belief. Her brother was her best friend and confidant. This family, and all of us, have made a vow to shower baby Siyanna with all the love, protection, and guidance a village can offer.

As you can imagine, this sudden tragedy has left the family unprepared for the financial burdens that comes with burying a cherished loved one. Funds are currently being raised to help cover the cost of Sadie's last expenses and getting her back to Oregon, and these donations will also go directly towards the memorial service and the burial. We have set a goal of $18,000 with the hope that we can send our beautiful Sadie off in the most befitting home going service possible. Sadie's Auntie Jackie will be overseeing this GoFundMe and is also accepting donations on her cash app, which is the family's preferred donation method. ($JackieWhitt - NOTE: Sadie)

We are praying for this assistance, as it will ease the financial strain on Sadie's family and provide much needed support during this unimaginably difficult time. Whatever is left over, a trust will be developed for baby Siyanna, in her name for her future needs. If you're unable to donate, we understand, just simply sharing this fundraiser is enough and truly appreciated. We thank every donor in advance, and everyone who shares this fundraiser, because it is through your support and kindness that will help us reach the goal for this family.

We thank you for your love, your compassion, and all of your generosity at this time. We could have never imagined ourselves being stuck in this situation of trying to send our baby girl home while at the same time having to bear the grief and gravity of such a catastrophic loss.

Your support truly means the world to each and everyone of us, and especially to Sadie. I will leave updates as things go along, letting you know about the goals that are reached. Lastly, for those who don't trust the online payment system or third party apps, you're welcome to contact Jackie, Sadie's Auntie, for other options.

UPDATE FROM AUNTIE JACKIE: We have received $280 through cash app so far, and other donations, which brings us up to $1860 as of 7/15/25. We’re still quite a ways away from the goal but we are praying for additional resources to finalize dates and options for the service and a plot. You’re welcome to call the funeral home directly if you’d like to make a payment on behalf of Sadie Bobo.
