<div>In Loving Memory of Cassie
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Cassie was a bright and shining light who could lift even the darkest night. Her laughter was infectious, her kindness effortless, and she always knew how to make others feel seen and supported.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>She was a devoted mother to her two beautiful daughters, Eliza and newborn Elynor — the center of her world. Cassie embraced motherhood with endless love, patience, and pride. Her legacy will continue to shine through her girls and in the hearts of everyone who was lucky enough to know her.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On October 9, 2025, Daniel and Cassie welcomed their beautiful daughter, Elynor, into the world. What should have been a joyful new chapter has turned into heartbreak. Just three weeks later, Cassie tragically passed away at only 32 years old.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With no preparations in place for such an unimaginable loss, Daniel is now facing the overwhelming cost of funeral arrangements while also caring for a newborn on his own. He is left making difficult decisions about their future — whether to stay in Pleasant Hill or move back to Las Vegas where he has family support — both of which come with financial challenges.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All donations will go directly toward Cassie’s cremation and memorial services, as well as supporting Daniel with necessary expenses during this transition — including the potential move to be closer to family as he raises baby Elynor.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Eliza is now in the care of her biological father, while Daniel moves forward as the sole provider for newborn Elynor.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for taking the time to read Cassie’s story and for holding this family in your heart. Every donation — no matter the size — helps ease the overwhelming burden of this tragic loss and gives Daniel the support he needs to focus on his daughters’ well-being.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your kindness, prayers, and contributions mean more than words can express. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
</div>
