On April 18, 2026, our lives were changed forever by a senseless act of road rage. My son’s best friend—an innocent young man—was caught in the middle of a confrontation between two drivers while he was outside our home. He had his keys in his hand and was preparing to ride off on his motorcycle when an argument between the passing vehicles escalated. In an instant, one of the individuals began shooting, and a stray bullet struck him in the head. Tragically, he did not survive.

His family, friends, and everyone who knew him are devastated and still trying to process this unimaginable loss. He was a hardworking, kind-hearted young man—a devoted family member, a loyal friend, and someone who truly showed up for the people in his life.He had a way of lighting up any room with his humor, always leaving people smiling and laughing.

He had a passion for working on cars and built his life as a mechanic. If someone needed help, he was always the one to answer the call. He made a lasting impact on those around him, and he will be deeply missed and never forgotten.

During this incredibly difficult time, we are asking for support to help his family . Any contribution, no matter the size, would mean so much to those who loved him.

Thank you for keeping his family in your thoughts and prayers.
