Our hearts are heavy as we share the news of the passing of Brad Crowder at just age 39.

Brad was more than just a husband and father; he was the foundation of his family and a friend to everyone who knew him. His sudden departure has left an unimaginable void in the lives of his wife, Kyla (Peggy-Jean) and their two beautiful children, 11-year-old Mason and 8-year-old Layla.

As Kyla navigates the deep grief of losing her partner, she is also facing the daunting reality of becoming a single parent overnight. Between funeral arrangements, immediate living expenses, Christmas, and planning for the kids' future, the financial burden is significant.

How Your Support Helps

We are reaching out to our community to help ease the financial pressure on Kyla so she can focus on what matters most: helping Mason and Layla heal.

Your donations will go directly toward:

    •    Immediate Expenses: Unforeseen costs associated with his sudden passing.

    •    Household Stability: Monthly rent/utilities during this transition.

    •    The Children’s Needs: School supplies, counseling services, and extracurricular activities to keep life as "normal" as possible for Mason and Layla.

    •    Future Security: A small safety net for the family as they adjust to a single-income household.

Other Ways to Help

If you are unable to donate at this time, please consider:

    1    Sharing this fundraiser with your network and on social media.

    2    Keeping Kyla, Mason, and Layla in your thoughts and prayers.

    3    Leaving a memory of Brad in the comments for the children to read one day.

Thank you for your incredible kindness, generosity, and for surrounding this family with love during their darkest hour, so close to Christmas.
