On May 28, 2025, Will (25) and Natalie (22) experienced the unexpected loss of their mother, Bonnie Budzyn. Bonnie was not only the heart of their family, but also their greatest source of strength, love, and encouragement. Her passing leaves an unimaginable void.
This tragedy is made even heavier by the fact that Will and Natalie also lost their father nearly a decade ago. Now, as young adults, they are left to navigate life without either of their parents.
We are raising funds to help Will and Natalie manage the financial burden that comes with this kind of loss - funeral expenses, living costs, and the many unexpected bills that arise in times of crisis. Every donation, no matter the amount, will help ease their load so they can focus on healing, honoring their mom’s memory, and supporting one another.
If you're able, please consider donating or sharing this campaign. Your support means more than you know.
