Honoring My Dad's Life and Legacy

Donation protected

Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,


It is with a shattered and broken heart that I share the sudden loss of my dad. He was so much more than just a dad he was a pillar of strength, love, and inspiration to all who knew him. He was a PawPaw to many grandkids. He was a dear friend to many. His kindness, his warmth, and his unwavering support, his willingness to help any and everybody, he big and bright smile will forever be embedded in the hearts and minds of those who knew him.


As the family and I try to navigate this indescribably difficult time, we’re faced with not just the emotional pain of losing him, but also the financial challenges that come with losing such an important person of our family. We are humbly asking for your support to help with funeral expenses and any other costs related to his passing. Any amount, no matter how small or big, would mean the world to us and ease some of the burden we are carrying right now.


What makes this loss even more heartbreaking is that my dad was also the caretaker of so many including his grandchildren. He was such a vital person for my brothers and I. He helped so many in various ways. Losing him I lost my bestfriend, my biggest cheerleader. Anyone who knew my dad knows there was nothing or noone he loved in this world more than his kids, and his grandkids. If youd knew him youd know I was daddys girl thru and thru. Spoiled rotten for as long as I can remember. Losing him has left me completely shattered. So because of this, I would love to spoil him and ensure that we send him off in the way he deserves. He was the kind of man that would give his absolute last to any of us kids and even more so our kids. We find comfort in knowing he’ll be watching over us from above.


Your contributions will go directly toward:

- Funeral and memorial service costs

- Helping our family through the emotional and financial strain

- Any additional expenses related to his passing


If you’re able to donate, share, or even just send a message of support, it means more than you’ll ever know. Every little bit helps lift some of the weight off during an incredibly painful time. That none of us were ready for due to him passing unexpectedly


From the depths of our hearts, thank you for your support, love, and kindness during this incredibly difficult time.


With love and gratitude,

Astoshia
