Hello everyone who’s made it here, my name is Avery Thorn. I was a very good friend of Seth Varela since the 4th grade and am asking for your help during this extremely difficult time. Seth lost his life recently in a highway collision coming home after celebrating his birthday in Yosemite with his family. Seth was an overwhelmingly strong person and expressed love in excess. He was like a brother to me and his family needs our support more than ever. His son no longer has a father to raise him so please help out the Varela’s in his painful absence. I am good friends with Mike Varela (Seth’s dad) and will be fundraising for him and his family. I am managing the funds and will transfer the money to my own bank account before requesting a cashiers check and sending the money to Mike Varela.
