With heavy hearts and profound sadness, we share the passing of Riley Paul Uptain, a beloved son, brother, and friend. Riley left this world on Sunday, December 8th, 2024, at the tender age of 10.

Riley was a true warrior, born with cerebral palsy and craniosynostosis. He faced every challenge with incredible strength and determination, always radiating joy and love to those around him. Despite his medical struggles, Riley embraced life with a contagious enthusiasm. He loved Super Mario, video games, playing with his friends, going to school, riding the bus, and spending time with his step-brother Jaxton and his many cousins.

Riley's bright light was tragically dimmed when he lost his battle to a sudden and devastating infection in his shunt. His passing has left an immense void in the lives of his parents, Rachel Wilkinson and Andrew Uptain, and all who knew him.

We are raising funds to help the family with the unexpected funeral expenses during this incredibly difficult time. Any contribution, big or small, will alleviate some of the financial burden and allow them to focus on healing and honoring Riley's memory.

Your generosity and support are deeply appreciated. Please keep Riley's family in your thoughts and prayers.
