Hello, my name is Vanessa, and I’m reaching out during one of the most difficult times our family has ever faced.

My daughter, Sydney, recently lost her father in a tragic car accident just two weeks ago. This sudden loss has been devastating for her, and we are still trying to process the shock and grief that has come with it.

Sydney had just started a new job as a dog washer, but due to everything that has happened, she was unable to continue and unfortunately lost her position. Right now, our focus is simply helping her heal and be present for her father’s services.

I am starting this GoFundMe to help cover Sydney’s travel expenses so she can attend her father’s funeral and spend time with her siblings in Oregon next month. Being there to say goodbye and be with family means everything to her, and I want to make sure she has that opportunity without the added stress of financial burden.

Any support—whether through a donation or by sharing this page—would mean more than words can express. Thank you for helping us give Sydney the chance to honor her father and begin the healing process.

With gratitude,

Vanessa
