My sweet niece Miranda is facing the unimaginable. Just a few weeks ago, we lost her dad, Rob — her biggest fan, her steady guide, and truly her entire world. Not long after, her mom also passed away, leaving Miranda without the love or support of either parent.

Rob and Miranda shared something very special: a deep love for soccer. Rob played for many years and rarely missed one of Miranda’s games. Their bond was built on laughter, encouragement, and countless hours on and off the field.

Now, at only 20 years old, Miranda is suddenly navigating college, athletics, and everyday life completely on her own. She’s a hardworking student, a dedicated athlete, and a kind young woman with so much promise. But the financial and emotional weight of losing both parents is enormous.

We’re starting this fundraiser to give Miranda some stability — to help with tuition, housing, and daily expenses so she can stay in school, keep playing the sport she and her dad loved, and begin to heal surrounded by support. All donations will go directly toward Miranda’s education and living expenses as she works to build a future her parents would have been proud of.

Any gift, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference.

With love and gratitude,

Aunt Sue Sue, Bella & Luke
