We are deeply heartbroken to share the tragic and unexpected loss of our beloved Jonas Diaz (Sun that sings), who was found deceased on November 1, at just 19 years old. The pain our family is feeling is immeasurable, and in this dark time, we turn to our community and compassionate individuals everywhere in hopes of receiving support for his funeral costs, which are far beyond anything we ever anticipated.
Honoring Jonas Diaz's Memory
Our son, grandson, brother, uncle, cousin was a bright spirit whose life was cut short far too soon. He brought joy, laughter, and love to our family and friends, touching lives in ways words can scarcely express. The sudden nature of his passing has left us not only grappling with grief, but also facing significant financial hardship. Planning a funeral is something no parent or grandparent ever expects for their child, and we were not prepared for the overwhelming costs associated with giving him a proper farewell.
Why We Need Your Help
The expenses for funeral services, burial, transportation, and gathering loved ones have proven far greater than we could afford on our own. We wish to honor him with dignity and respect, providing a service that reflects how much he was cherished, and offering his friends and family a chance to say goodbye. Unfortunately, these costs include the funeral home, casket, memorial ceremony, and the necessary documents and arrangements that must be made in such a short window.
Without life insurance or savings set aside for such an unimaginable emergency, we are left desperate for help. We are humbly reaching out to our community, friends, extended family, and kind strangers for any financial support you can share. Every contribution, no matter the amount, directly helps ease the crushing burden of funeral expenses and brings us closer to giving our precious Jonas Diaz the loving tribute he deserves.
How Donations Will Be Used
All funds raised will go towards:
- Funeral home and burial
- Memorial service and gathering for friends and family
- Transportation and Funeral Coach
- Professional Services for Funeral Director and staff
- Casket
- Embalming Special Care
If there are funds beyond what is needed, we promise they will be used to honor his memory and support those affected by his loss.
Our Promise to You
We understand these are hard times for many. We ask only for what you can spare, knowing that every act of kindness brings a bit of light into our heartbroken family’s world. Your support—financially, emotionally, and through sharing this fundraiser—means more to us than words can express. Even if you are unable to donate, simply passing along or sharing our request is a powerful gesture we greatly appreciate.
Thank you for reading, for caring, and for holding us in your thoughts. Please help us lay our Jonas Diaz to rest with dignity, love, and the remembrance he deserves.
With deepest gratitude,
Talia, Ronald, and Pam Diaz
