<div>In the wake of an unimaginable tragedy, we are coming together to support a young mother and her two small children, ages 4 and 3, after the sudden and heartbreaking loss of their loving partner and daddy, Will/RJ, at just 32 years of age. RJ tragically lost his life in a motor vehicle accident while on his way to work on May 22, 2026.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>RJ was a devoted partner to Laurissa, a loving and caring dad to Kassie and Mikey, a cherished son to Rex and Deb, and a beloved brother to Nick. He was deeply loved by his family and friends, and his loss has left an unimaginable void in the lives of all who knew him.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In an instant, this young family’s world changed forever. Laurissa is now facing the overwhelming reality of navigating life without her partner by her side, while Kassie and Mikey must grow up without the love, guidance, and presence of their daddy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As the family grieves this profound loss, we are hoping to help ease some of the financial burden they are now carrying. Funds raised will go toward funeral expenses, household and living costs, childcare, and ongoing support for Laurissa and the children as they begin rebuilding and adjusting to life after this tragedy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Most importantly, we want this family to know they are not alone. The love and support of family, friends, and community can help provide comfort, stability, and care during this incredibly difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any contribution, no matter the amount, is deeply appreciated. If you are unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser and keeping the family in your thoughts and prayers means more than words can express.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping surround Laurissa, Kassie, Mikey, Rex, Deb, Nick, and all who loved RJ with compassion, support, and kindness during this heartbreaking time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A Celebration of Life will be held Sunday, June 7, 2026, from 1-4 pm at the Royal Canadian Legion in Coboconk, ON.
