Support Rei Moody After Her Father's Loss

I'm starting this fundraiser for my best friend, Rei Moody, and her family. On 03/30/2025, her father, Stephen (Steve) Moody, passed away from cancer that had metastasized from his liver to the rest of his body. The financial strain that this journey of treating symptoms, hospice, and 24/7 intensive care has been massive for her family. I am hoping that by creating a crowdfunding for them, it will help to lift the burden after such a tragic loss. Steve was always a father first; everything else came second. He was so concerned about his daughter and two sons regardless of his terminal illness. It was remarkable to see even though he was handed a brutal set of cards, he still put his children first before his circumstances.

Every day that he was in our care, we made sure of two things: he was made to feel right at home, and that he always had his daily usual Starbucks coffee: a tall Pike Place with 6 sugar packets. (He, in all my years of knowing him, never finished a tall, but he ordered it anyway.) But really, with the help of his daughter and her two brothers, whom he loved beyond this world, we worked together to try and make his last moments on Earth as peaceful and as "normal" as you could make it. I know he so greatly worried about Rei and how she could heal and rebuild after losing her rock.

Right now, the best way she and the rest of her family could use help is by spreading the word in hopes of getting as many $5, $10, and $20 donations as possible to cover things like burial costs, the cost of cremation, the cost of death certificates, the cost of ending his lease at his apartment, and of course, the overwhelming medical and non-medical bills, etc. The major goal is $54,000, but absolutely any amount of this goal achieved is so abundantly helpful.

Thank you so much for your time! <3
