In Loving Memory of a Father, Hero, and Friend
On July 28th, 2025, our hearts were shattered when Aland Etienne, a devoted father and beloved security officer, tragically lost his life in a senseless mass shooting at 345 Park Avenue in New York City. Aland died a hero — protecting others as he had done selflessly for years.
Aland was more than just a colleague or friend — he was light in every room, a pillar of strength to his family, and the kind of father every child dreams of. He leaves behind two beautiful children who were his entire world. His deepest wish was to give them the future they deserve.
This GoFundMe has been created in honor of Aland’s legacy and to support the most important part of his life — his children. All funds raised will go directly toward their education and well-being, ensuring that even in his absence, his love continues to guide and protect them.
We are grieving, we are heartbroken — but we are also hopeful.
Hopeful that the same love Aland gave to the world will now be returned to his children.
Your donation, no matter how small, means the world.
Thank you for helping us carry his light forward.
With love and gratitude,
The Etienne Family & Loved Ones
