Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted supporters,

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our beloved Michael Gilliam. Michael left us unexpectedly on July 6th, 2025, and our family is deeply grieving this tremendous loss.

As we try to come to terms with his passing, we are also faced with the financial burden of cremation and final arrangements. We are reaching out to ask for your support in helping us give Michael the peaceful and respectful farewell he deserves.

Michael was a caring, generous, and deeply loved person who touched many lives. He brought joy, laughter, and comfort to those around him, and he never hesitated to lend a helping hand. Now, we want to honor his memory in a way that reflects the love and kindness he gave to others.

Your generous donations will go toward:

Cremation expenses

A small memorial to celebrate Michael’s life

Supporting the family during this incredibly difficult time

Every contribution, no matter how small, will help ease this burden. If you are not able to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser with others who may be able to help.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your compassion, love, and support.

With love and gratitude,

Aimee Whitmore

On behalf of the Gilliam family
