Help Support Our Mom After the Loss of Our Dad

On May 15th, 2025, our beloved dad passed away after a long and courageous battle. He had just turned 71 on April 6th and spent the final month of his life in the hospital, where he received extensive care for his lungs, heart, and kidneys. Despite the best efforts of his doctors and the unconditional love from our mom, he passed peacefully, leaving behind a family who adored him.

Our parents, high school sweethearts, were married for 50 beautiful years - 51 years as of today. They raised two children and have two grandchildren who have always been the center of their world. Over the past two decades, Dad faced immense health challenges: neuropathy that stripped him of his ability to walk and led to leg amputation, heart disease, severe diabetes, and more. Through it all, our mom served as his devoted full-time caregiver, never once wavering in her love or strength.

Mom is on a fixed income, so every expense needs to be carefully considered. We’re setting a goal of $5,000 to help her with the immediate financial burdens she’s facing during this time of overwhelming loss; medical bills, end-of-life and memorial services, and living expenses as she begins to adjust to life without her lifelong partner.

If you’re able to donate, no matter the amount, it would mean the world to our family. If you’re not able to give, please consider sharing this page. Every bit of support means the world to us.

Thank you for being part of our extended village. We are forever grateful.
