My brother was an amazing friend to many—outgoing, hard-working, and always ready to lend a hand. He was a loving father, son, and brother who cherished the outdoors, loved going hunting, and was passionate about Spartan races. He truly enjoyed helping people and was the kind of person who could get along with anyone. Whenever you were around him, life was never boring. His energy and kindness touched everyone he met, and he leaves behind countless friends and family who will miss him deeply.

On December 8, 2025, my brother passed away unexpectedly by himself in his bed. The suddenness of his loss has left our family heartbroken and facing the difficult task of saying goodbye. As we try to come to terms with this tragedy, we are also working to honor his memory in the best way we can.

We are raising funds to help pay for his funeral expenses. Those of you that knew my brother know that he did everything by himself and never liked asking for help. Me asking for help to pay for his funeral would bother him, but times are tough. I do not want to ask for a lot, but for those of you who loved him and shared many memories with him, if you’re willing to help out, my family and I would greatly appreciate it. Your support means more than words can say, and we thank you for being part of his life and ours.
