My name is Rhiannon. Losing your partner is something none of us want to imagine. We aren't ever fully prepared for it. It can, and often does, knock you completely off your feet. These are the circumstances my sweet cousin, Chrystal, had to fall asleep in last night after finding her husband unresponsive in their home.

Emergency medics were called. They worked diligently to revive Joey. All their efforts still proved unsuccessful. Their children were in the next room over.

Joseph Loy, a husband, a father, a friend, passed away last night at 44 years old. The family, utterly unprepared.

We are asking help from our loving community to ease the financial burden of funeral and memorial expenses. As anyone who has had to endure burying a loved one knows, it is terribly expensive. Anything you can give helps!

We do not yet have a service date and are starting from zero. We're asking for funds to get the ball rolling. It will all come on very quickly.

I'll post updates here as things are planned. For now, Chrystal and the kids are resting.

Your love, thoughts, prayers, and good vibes are welcomed. Your kindness and presence goes a long way.
