Hello, My name is Elsie Limage - I have setup this fundraiser on Behalf of my brother Charles DeBaptiste

On May 8th, 2026 our brother Cecil Baptiste was brutally assaulted beaten and left for dead in a shopping strip in Harriman, Tennessee.

Bystanders called EMT, he had flatlined. They brought him back to life.

He died on May 18. 

He has one child Yssabella and the remaining funds will go towards her education.  She is a brilliant scientist that needs to finish her education and continued studies.

Please help us give Cecil a proper send off and his daughter a chance to complete her studies.  She is studying Physics or Astrophysics.

Update:  June 8. 2026 - We have had Cecil’s funeral and because my beautiful niece he’s  only daughter no longer has her rock and top fan  - she also no longer has his financial support.   I am allowing this fundraiser to go on until - we have accumulated enough funds for her continued education. 

Thank you for reading. 

Thank you for all your contributions and support.
