Help us Honor Demetri

In Loving Memory of Our Sweet Demetri

It is with the heaviest heart that we share the unimaginable news of the passing of our beloved Demetri. As he just turned 12 years old, he fought a battle no child should ever have to face. After a courageous fight with cancer, his tiny body grew tired, and he peacefully gained his wings.

No parent is ever prepared to plan a funeral for their child. We are heartbroken and trying to navigate a reality we never imagined. As we begin the painful process of laying this sweet boy to rest, we are asking for help from the community.

We want to give Demetri the beautiful and dignified farewell he deserves — one that reflects the love, joy, and light he brought into this world. Unfortunately, funeral expenses are overwhelming, especially during a time where his mother Emily’s entire focus has been on his care, comfort, and hope for healing.

If you are able, any donation — no matter the amount — will help lift a tremendous burden from our shoulders. Your support will go directly toward funeral arrangements, burial services, and giving Demetri the peaceful rest he has earned.

For those who cannot donate, we kindly ask that you share this page and keep our family in your prayers as we try to find strength during this heartbreaking time.

Thank you for your love, compassion, and support. We are forever grateful.

️ Rest in Heaven, sweet Demetri.
You will always be our hero. ️
