Support Brittany's Family in Grief
Donation protected
Dear Friends, Family, and Community,
It is with broken hearts that we share the devastating news that Brittany Brunner’s husband Dan, died suddenly and tragically. His sudden passing has left Brittany, and their children Allie, Austin, and his son Devon facing a reality none of them were prepared for.
Mental health struggles are often silent and invisible, even to those closest to us. Dan was a devoted dad, a loving partner, and a kind-hearted person who meant the world to his family. His loss is felt deeply and painfully—not only by those who knew him but by a wife now navigating grief, shock, and the unimaginable task of raising two small children without the love and support of her life partner.
We are rallying around Brittany and her children to help ease the immediate financial burden as they begin this painful journey. Funds raised will go toward funeral and memorial costs, day-to-day living expenses, childcare, and therapy or mental health support for the family as they process this tragic loss.
This is a moment to come together—to show Brittany that she is not alone, that her children are held in love, and that compassion still shines in the darkest moments. Every donation, every share, and every kind message will make a difference.
Thank you for being a light in this family’s life during such a heartbreaking time.
With gratitude and love
