Kali Crushell Harris tragically passed away last night on Thanksgiving Eve around 7:30pm on her way home from work. Her sudden loss has left her husband and four young children facing an unimaginable reality. Kali was a kind soul, a talented baker, a devoted mother, and a free spirit who cared deeply for everyone around her. She was always there to cheer her kids on, to make sweet treats for family and friends, and to bring warmth and love into every room she entered. Her absence is felt deeply by her immediate and extended family, and by all who knew and loved her.

I am creating this GoFundMe to help my brother and his children during this incredibly difficult time. The funds raised will go directly toward covering the costs of Kali’s funeral arrangements and providing support for the kids as they adjust to life without their mother. My brother will need to take time away from work to care for his children and manage everything that comes with such a sudden loss. We are not sure if there is any life insurance, so every bit of support will make a difference. If you are able to contribute, please know that your kindness will help ease the burden on this family as they grieve and try to find their footing again.

If you cannot spare any money, we ask that you keep Kali’s family in your thoughts and prayers. Sharing this fundraiser is also a tremendous help. Thank you for reading, for caring, and for helping us honor Kali’s memory. Fly high, Kali—you are missed so much, and your love will live on in your husband, your children, and everyone whose life you touched.
