Support Erika in Her Time of Heartbreaking Loss
Donation protected
Dear friends,
We are reaching out with heavy hearts to ask for your support for our dear friend, Erika. Originally from Brazil, Erika moved to Canada with her loving husband, Chris, to build a life together full of dreams and love. For the past two years, their world was turned upside down as Chris bravely battled cancer. Despite his incredible strength and unwavering spirit, he sadly lost his fight on February 13, 2025.
Chris was not only a devoted husband but also a cherished colleague and friend. His dedication, positive attitude, and unwavering support made him a joy to work with and a friend to all his co-workers. He leaves behind a legacy of exceptional work and countless cherished memories.
Now, Erika faces an unimaginable reality—navigating life without her husband, far from her family, and carrying the enormous weight of funeral expenses alone. In the midst of her grief, she is left to pick up the pieces, struggling to give Chris the farewell he deserves while also trying to figure out how to move forward.
No one should have to go through this alone. This GoFundMe is a way for us to wrap Erika in love and support during this devastating time. Every donation, no matter the size, will help ease the overwhelming financial burden she faces—covering funeral costs, immediate living expenses, and allowing her the time and space to grieve without additional hardship.
If you are unable to contribute financially, we ask that you please share this page to help spread the word. Your kindness, prayers, and generosity mean everything.
Let’s come together to show Erika that even in her darkest moment, she is not alone.
With gratitude and love,
Flavia & Daniel
