Home going for Kemeonta Staggers

Donation protected
Thank you all for your continued love, prayers & support. I am reaching out to you all in hopes that we can receive some assistance with trying to bring Kemeonta "Kemo" Staggers back home to Illinois.  

Kemo was a very loving, kindhearted, and an very affectionate person. He will give you the shirt off his back. He was always concerned with the well being of others before himself.  At the young age of 2 Kemo lost his biological mother Latisha Lake due to heart failure in 2001 she was only 20 yrs old. Kemo then went to live with his grandmother Barbara Perry & his auntie Felicia Perry. In 2004 Felicia passed away from cervical cancer. Kemo was very hurt, confused & struggled with finding himself over these last years. After the passing of his mother & aunt he was raised by his grandmother & other aunt Heather Lake & resided with his other cousins Felicia 7 & Heather 2 children in Arizona.

The family knows that he may have struggled with a form of anxiety  but not to the degree that he would ever harm himself. Kemo left home on 02/09/19 at 5 am & never returned home. Our family had been searching for him & reaching out to the Gilbert & Chandler Police Department for assistance during the time he was missing. As of 02/17/19 Kemo was found in a lake in Gilbert AZ not far away from home.

The funding we are requesting is to bring Kemo from Arizona back to Illinois so he can have a home going with family, friends & be laid to rest with his mother. The funding will also help his immediate family here in Arizona with traveling expenses.

We are trying to do this as soon as possible. Any assistance is greatly appreciated Again we want to thank you all for your contentious love & support. I ask if its not to much to please keep praying for my family.
