<div>Our family tragically lost Thomas Gigler, husband, father, my brother, and friend leaving behind Michelle, and their three young sons. His loss was sudden and completely unexpected and he was so loved.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thomas was incredibly generous with neighbors, family, and friends. He didn't sweat the small stuff, he didn't judge, and he was always up for a healthy debate, genuinely curious to hear others' views of the world.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Michelle is now raising three boys on her own. She is grieving the loss of her husband while facing memorial costs, legal and administrative hurdles, and the loss of Thomas's income, all while helping her sons through unimaginable grief. The paperwork that normally allows a family to access insurance and retirement funds may take many months, and Michelle needs support now.
</div>
<div>Every dollar raised goes directly to Michelle through GoFundMe's beneficiary system. Funds will help cover memorial and immediate expenses, keep the household stable over the coming year, grief counseling, and begin building an education fund for the boys, something Thomas cared deeply about.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you're able to give, thank you. If you can't, sharing this page helps just as much. And to everyone who has reached out with prayers and kind words, including the passengers who created a memorial onboard, our family is deeply grateful.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sincerely,
</div>
<div>Wendy Gigler, sister to Thomas Gigler, raising funds on behalf of Michelle, the beneficiary
