Help Support a Family of 8 After a Tragic Loss

Yesterday, our family suffered an unimaginable tragedy. My sister-in-law, Sarah, lost her beloved husband, JD, in a sudden scaffolding accident while he was at work. He leaves behind not only the love of his life, but seven beautiful children who are now facing life without their father.

JD was the heart of every room he entered — the kind of person who lit up a space with his laugh, his goofy jokes, and his even goofier dance moves. He made everyone feel welcome, often opening his home to friends and family in need. He had the biggest heart and always put others first.

There are simply no words to describe the hole his absence leaves behind.

He was also the main financial provider for their household. In the midst of heartbreak, his wife is now faced with the overwhelming responsibility of caring for their children, grieving this devastating loss, and trying to figure out how to make ends meet.

We’re asking for help — any amount you can give will go directly to support this family as they navigate the days and months ahead. Your donation will help with:

Funeral and memorial expenses

Immediate living costs (rent, food, bills)

Support for the children’s needs (school supplies, clothing, etc.)

Giving this family some breathing room to grieve without financial panic


Please share, donate, and keep this family in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you for your compassion and generosity during this heartbreaking time.
