Hello, my name is Zaina Tomaino, and I am fundraising on behalf of my little brother who passed away on December 14th, 2024, in a car crash. I come to you seeking your support to give my brother Gavin the memorial he truly deserves. This is a difficult time, and we want to honor his memory in a way that reflects the impact he had on our lives.

My brother was only 21 years old, and he still had his whole life ahead of him. My brother had a lot of good things starting to go for him and in the right positive direction. I know he was going to do great things with his life. My brother was my best friend, and my life will never be the same without him. I am very grateful for the years I had watching my brother grow and become the man that he was. He was truly the most amazing, goofy soul, and it breaks my heart that my son will never get to meet his uncle. He was an extraordinary son, brother, grandson, friend, and played so many other roles in our lives. He enjoyed woodworking, spending time with his dogs Blanco and Oakley, and hanging out with his great group of friends. He was always making us laugh, and we will miss him terribly.

Please pray for Gavin and our entire family during this time of grief.

We thank you in advance for any support you can provide.

His service date will be in the spring of 2025.
