Support Julie Smith After A Tragic Loss

It is with a heavy heart that we share the news of a devastating loss for our dear friend, Julie Smith. This week, Julie’s fiancée, Angela (Ang) Silva, tragically passed away by suicide. As you can imagine, this is an incredibly painful and unexpected blow to Julie and her loved ones. Julie and Ang were to be married this year.

Alongside her grief, Julie is also supporting herself through school, Julie and Ang were residing together, sharing the bills. However, Ang has been out of work due to grieving the loss of her mother just a few months ago and now Julie is left with the emotional and financial strain caused by this tragedy.

Julie, who has always been the first to offer help to others, now finds herself in need of support. We are launching this GoFundMe campaign to assist Julie with financial needs and living expenses as she works to heal and rebuild so that she is able to navigate through without her fiancée and best friend.

We know that no amount of money can replace the loss she is facing, but any contribution will ease some of the immediate burdens she is shouldering on her own. If you are able to help in any way—whether by donating, sharing this campaign, or offering a kind word—your support will mean the world to Julie.

Thank you for standing with Julie in this time of devastation.

Your generosity, love, and compassion will never be forgotten.

With deep appreciation,

Julie’s tribe

We love you!
