Hi everyone,

My name is Destiny Weaver, and I’m reaching out on behalf of my cousin Luke and our family during a time of unimaginable loss. We are heartbroken by the sudden passing of Luke’s father, Rick, and are asking for your help to support the family as they navigate this incredibly difficult time.

Rick was more than just a father—he was the heart of his family. A loving dad to Luke, Shane, and his youngest son Kayden, and a proud grandpa to Luke’s two beautiful boys. The special bond he shared with his grandchildren brought him immense joy, and his presence in their lives will be missed beyond words.

Luke is now facing an overwhelming challenge. As a single father and small business owner, he is not only grieving his father’s loss, and his grandmother's loss but is also stepping up to care for his younger brother Kayden. This sudden responsibility comes with emotional and financial burdens that no one should have to face alone.

Luke has always been the first to help others, whether as a devoted dad, a supportive brother, a loving uncle, or a loyal friend. Now, it’s our turn to support him.

He’s stepping up to raise Kayden — a teenager with unique emotional needs — keeping him in a safe, loving home alongside his own sons. But love alone doesn’t pay for food, therapy, legal guardianship, or housing stability. That’s why we’re asking for help with the immediate needs of his family as they adjust to this new reality. Every donation, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference. If you're unable to give, please consider sharing this or sending a message of support, every act of kindness helps.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generosity, compassion, and love during this heartbreaking time.

With gratitude,

Destiny Weaver
