On September 12, 2026, our family was devastated by the sudden loss of my sister Julieanna’s husband, Bruce, who tragically passed away in a motorcycle accident at just 31 years old. Julieanna is currently expecting their first baby, a baby that Bruce was so incredibly excited to welcome.

Julieanna and Bruce spent six years building a beautiful life together. They had recently bought their first home and were so excited to make it their own. As the handyman, Bruce already had so many plans for fixing it up and creating a home for their growing family.

Bruce was truly one of a kind—our “jolly green giant” with the biggest heart. He was always willing to help anyone, whether he had known you for three seconds or for years. He always put others before himself, and if you needed something and Bruce could help, he was there.

Julieanna is now facing the unimaginable loss of her husband while preparing to welcome their baby and navigating a future she never expected to face without him.

We created this GoFundMe to help ease some of the financial burden during this incredibly difficult time. Donations will help with funeral expenses, their home and everyday living expenses, and provide support for Julieanna and their baby in the months ahead.

Bruce spent his life showing up for others. Now, we hope to show up for Julieanna and the baby he was already so excited to love.

Any donation or share means more to our family than we can put into words. Thank you for surrounding Julieanna and their baby with the same love and support Bruce gave so freely to everyone around him.
