With broken hearts, we share the devastating loss of baby Emily Blanca, a beautiful and radiant soul who passed away unexpectedly at just 5 months old due to SIDS. Early Monday morning, Emily slipped away peacefully in her sleep, leaving behind a deep void in the hearts of everyone who loved her.

Emily was the light of her family—a joyful, happy baby whose smile could brighten anyone’s day. She brought laughter, love, and sunshine wherever she went. Though her time here was far too short, she made a lasting impact on everyone who met her.

Cari and William, loving parents to Emily, are now walking through the unimaginable—grieving the loss of their precious baby girl. No parent should ever have to experience this kind of pain or carry the weight of planning a funeral for their child.

We are raising funds to help Cari and William with funeral and burial costs, and to offer them the space to grieve without the added burden of financial stress. If you feel moved to support, please consider donating. Any amount helps. If you’re unable to give, sharing this page means just as much.

Please keep Cari in your prayers during this heartbreaking time. We kindly ask that you be mindful of calls and texts—it’s all a lot to handle at once. Your love, patience, and support mean more than words can express.

Let’s come together to surround Cari and William with compassion, and to honor the short but beautiful life of sweet Emily Blanca.
