On November 5th, our family experienced an unimaginable loss. Justin and Nicole Anderson’s younger brother, Kyle, passed away unexpectedly at the age of 27. Our hearts are shattered as we try to navigate grief while handling the responsibilities that follow.

Kyle was many things. He was kind, loyal, had the sweetest disposition, and was someone who loved his family fiercely. His love for animals was truly special. He had aspirations of working with animals, had dreams he was still building, and plans he hadn’t yet gotten to live out. Losing him so suddenly has left us feeling like the ground has been pulled from beneath our feet when life already feels like it is in limbo.

As you may or may not know, Justin, Kyle and Nicole’s mom, Cathleen, is currently in the end stages of hospice care for cancer. She is unable to have an active role in navigating all that needs to be done to bring closure to Kyle’s life. Therefore, Justin and Nicole are now faced with the difficult and emotional task of handling arrangements for Kyle’s services, navigating legal matters, and cleaning out the home he lived in. As many families know, these unexpected costs add up quickly especially while coping with grief.

We are asking for support to help cover cremation and memorial service costs, legal fees, and clearing out Kyle’s home.

Any amount no matter how small will ease the burden during this devastating time and allow our family to honor Kyle with the respect, love, and dignity he deserves.

If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser or sending a message of support. We are deeply grateful for the love that has been shown to us already and for any help moving forward.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,

Justin Anderson, Nicole Anderson, and our entire family
