Help Support Michael Behnke's Family After His Tragic Loss

Donation protected
The Goal: Provide funeral, travel and support for Michael's children and family.

Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

It is with profound sadness that we share the unexpected passing of Michael Behnke, a devoted father, brother, and friend. In just four short weeks, cancer took him from us far too soon, leaving behind seven beautiful children, with the youngest being 10 years old, who now face an unimaginable loss.

Michael was a man of unwavering love and dedication. He worked tirelessly to provide for his family, ensuring his children and family felt supported, cherished, and safe. Now, in this heartbreaking time, they need our help.

We are raising funds to cover:
• Funeral and memorial expenses to honor Michael’s life
• Immediate support for his children, ensuring they have stability in the coming months
• Additional travel costs to get his children to his memorial services.

Any amount, no matter how small, will make a meaningful difference. If you are unable to donate, we ask that you share this campaign to help reach as many people as possible.

Michael’s legacy lives on through his children. Let’s come together to ease their burden and give them the support they need in this difficult time.

With love and gratitude,

Kelly
