Ryder Jay Starr Tolbert was a bright light in our family, even though her time with us was far too short. At just 3 months old, she touched the hearts of everyone who met her with her sweet spirit and gentle presence. Her sudden passing due to SIDS has left our family devastated, and her parents are facing unimaginable grief.

This loss was completely unexpected, and my cousin's family is now struggling to cover the funeral expenses and other costs that come with saying goodbye to their precious daughter. In the midst of their heartbreak, they are also facing the overwhelming burden of these financial challenges.

We are reaching out to friends, family, and anyone who feels moved to help. Any support—whether through a donation or by sharing this fundraiser—would mean more than we can explain. Your kindness will help honor Ryder's memory and provide comfort to her family as they navigate this incredibly difficult time. Thank you for being here for us.
