Support Stacy and Christian's Children

Hello, my godchildren have suffered a very devastating loss. They lost their father, Christian Tobin Ruckert, in a fatal car accident. We just laid him to rest last Saturday (Obituary https://www.clary-glenn.com/obituary/christian-chris-ruckert). We thank all of you who came to participate in his Celebration of Life. We were able to connect with many of his family who shared life stories. We thank all of you who have donated thus far. Please any friends, family etc, share this post so we can all make a big impact to help the children.

He has left his children, and they will have needs as both are in high school and another in middle school. They are slowly coming to the realization of his absence. Any gift no matter how little can help them in their future. This life circumstance is not easy for all of those who loved him. May God bless his family and loved ones find peace in this loss.

God only knows what their future will bring without his support in their life.

We ask humbly to help support these children in their loss and for their future.

Below is a friend who wrote about Christian:

I was told one of Christian’s favorite songs by John Mayer is “Daughters” - Album “Where the Light Is” :

I know a girl

She puts the color inside of my world

She's just like a maze

Where all of the walls all continually change

And I've done all I can

To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands

Now I'm starting to see

Maybe it's got nothing to do with me

Fathers be good to your daughters

Daughters will love like you do

Girls become lovers who turn into mothers

So mothers be good to your daughters too...

Oh, you see that skin?

It's the same she's been standing in

Since the day she saw him walking away

Now she's left cleaning up the mess he made

So fathers be good to your daughters

Daughters will love like you do

Girls become lovers who turn into mothers

So mothers be good to your daughters too

Boys, you can break

You'll find out how much they can take

Boys will be strong and boys soldier on

But boys would be gone without warmth from a woman's good, good heart...

On behalf of every man

Looking out for every girl

You are the guide and the weight of her world

So fathers be good to your daughters

Daughters will love like you do

Girls become lovers who turn into mothers

So mothers be good to your daughters, too

So mothers be good to your daughters, too

So mothers be good to your daughters, too

The lyrics definitely encapture & reflect his deep sensitivities and love for all his children, lovers turned to mothers, friends/relatives who are fathers/mothers….and how I imagine he would have loved to see & know how his own legacy, his children, will grow up to become….

A GoFundMe has been established for Christian & Stacy’s children: https://gofundme5227cb80

Let’s continue to shine his light, and not let the sun come down on his legacy, & light a candle of hope for his children and loved ones
