It is with heavy hearts that we share the unexpected and tragic passing of William Henry Noble Claiborne, a beloved son, devoted father, loving partner, and sole provider for his family.

Will leaves behind his wife, Selena, and their two young children, Azari (16 months) and Sareli (4 months). As a stay-at-home mother, Selena has dedicated the past several years to caring for their children full-time while Will worked tirelessly to provide for his family. No one could have prepared them for this heartbreaking loss.

This family is facing not only the loss of a beloved father and partner, but also the sudden loss of their primary source of income. With Azari and Sareli still so young and dependent on their mother for daily care, Selena now faces the overwhelming task of grieving, caring for her children, finding employment, and creating a new path forward.

Your contribution assists in:

• Funeral and memorial expenses, travel, and temporary housing.

• Housing-related expenses, including a security deposit and first and last month's rent, helping the family secure safe and stable housing during this period of profound change.

• Reliable transportation, ensuring Selena can attend appointments, care for the children, seek employment, and manage the many responsibilities that come with rebuilding a household as a new single parent.

• Relocation costs, insurance, childcare needs, household essentials, and other unexpected expenses that often accompany a life-altering loss.

Any contributions make meaningful difference during this incredibly difficult time. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser with your friends, family, and community. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support. Most importantly, please keep Selena, Azari, Sareli, and the entire Claiborne family in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate the difficult days, weeks, and months ahead.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
