</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><a href="https://www.facebook.com/mecos.oneal" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Meco's O’Neal</a> was a man who defined himself through his family and his community. He was a devoted father, a beloved son, and a brother who lived with a deep commitment to the people he loved. Whether he was on the sidelines as a "soccer dad" or on the field as a coach, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mecos.oneal" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Meco's</a> was a constant, positive presence—not just for his own children, but for every child in the neighborhood who needed a mentor. He was a family man who believed in showing up, and his kindness made everyone around him feel secure.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On the night of April 10, 2026, this beautiful life was met with a senseless act of violence at a local establishment. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mecos.oneal" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Meco's</a> didn't go down without a fight; he spent five days in the hospital showing the same strength he lived by. On April 15, surrounded by his children and loved ones who held him and spoke to him until the very end, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mecos.oneal" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Meco's</a> finally found peace.

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><a href="https://www.facebook.com/mecos.oneal" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Meco's</a> always looked out for his community and his family. Now, it is our turn to look out for him. Any contribution helps us protect his legacy and support the children who meant the world to him.
