edit: please refrain from messaging the family at this time as it becomes overwhelming when everyone is trying to get rest and calm down. I know we are all related in some way. Just please respect there space when it is so fresh:

Fundraising to help support Stefan’s family through this heartbreaking time, support for groceries, therapy, house payments and memorial costs.

Stefan was one of the most unique people ever. Growing up with a big family in the Okanagan. We would get to meet up Atleast once a month to celebrate someones birthday, now one of those months will be empty, and a chair at the table will always be empty, on Sept 17th 2026 Stefan was involved in a fatal accident in Kelowna after coming back from rugby practice. Just recently picking up his dream bike and getting into the sport. Stefan was full of energy and kick! But had a big heart that was often over- looked. Our family was never supportive of motorcycles due to the risks, but Stefan strived to feel alive. Dedication to his fitness and rugby team drove him. I’m glad to say that Stefan accepted Jesus Christ into his heart, we truly saw a change in character throughout the years. It calms me to know that although he may not be here in body, his spirit is still very much alive, Stefan rests in a place where he will no longer be a victim of the suffering this world has, he is now home! As we move through this difficult time we ask for support, everything is fresh right now and all we can think about is how he is gone, words can’t describe this feeling, up and left, off to practice and never to return. Gone in the way the family feared most! We need support! If you are willing and able I’d love to bless the family with financial stability to they can focus on the stress of the situation not the stress of the bills to come. Sept 18th we all met to support the parents and siblings, the home was full of tears, screams echoing, piercing groans, painful mourning, Thursday we lost a cousin, a son, a bother. Requests of Prayers to the family in mourning. Stefan now rests in the kingdom of the lord✝️
