Support Patricia with Michael Day's Medical & Funeral Costs
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Shirley, and I’m reaching out on behalf of my beloved aunt Patricia and her 13-year-old son. Just two days ago, we lost someone truly remarkable—my uncle, Michael Day.
Michael was a devoted husband, a loving father, and a deeply inspiring soul. He began his career as a celebrated Broadway dancer and later found his calling as a passionate theater director, captivating audiences and nurturing young talent. In recent years, he shared his light and strength as a yoga instructor, guiding his students with compassion, creativity, and wisdom.
In 2010, Michael married the love of his life, Patricia, and in 2011 they welcomed their son. Just six months after his birth, Michael was diagnosed with cancer. Despite the diagnosis, Michael fought with incredible strength and faith, defying all odds to give his family 14 more beautiful years together.
The last year was especially difficult. Michael endured numerous hospital stays, procedures, and intense treatments. Though he battled courageously, his body grew weaker—and on May 15, he passed away.
He leaves behind his wife Patricia and their 13-year-old son. The loss is immeasurable.
I ask for your help in supporting this beautiful family during an incredibly painful time. The funds raised will go toward easing the burden of significant medical bills and funeral expenses, helping Patricia and her son begin to heal and find stability in this next chapter.
Any amount you can give—no matter how small—will mean the world to us.
With love and deep gratitude,
Shirley
