Drew Van Diggelen was the kind of friend who made every moment brighter. Whether he was organizing a camping trip, traveling doing the work he took so much pride in, or bringing friends/family together for one of his many parties, Drew had a gift for uplifting those around him. His warmth, generosity, and sense of community touched so many lives, and he leaves behind a legacy of kindness and connection.



Drew passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind his beloved wife Bridgett and their two daughters, Dahlia and Delsie. The sudden change leaves “his girls” with some big unknowns in the months and years ahead. Soon they will need to navigate planning funeral services in multiple cities, cover travel costs and adjust to a new way of life.

At the end of this month, Bridgett is planned to have a major back surgery which will leave her with a long recovery ahead of her, but it is an essential procedure to end the pain she has endured the past year. They need our support more than ever, as they navigate these challenges while trying to make sense of the sudden loss of Drew, as of recent their sole provider. 


We want to honor Drew’s memory by ensuring his family is taken care of, in the way he has always taken care of those around him. Any support you can offer means so much, and we thank you for coming together to help Bridgett, Dahlia, and Delsie.  

Drew has always been the person so many of us called or depended on when unexpected life events set us back, so we ask that you help his family in the same way.
