How you can help

From a mother’s heart…

On May 23, 2025, my world was shattered. I lost my son — my baby, my heart — in a tragic car accident. He was only 16 years old, and taken from me far too soon.

As a single mother, I did everything I could to raise him, protect him, and give him a good life. But nothing could prepare me for this kind of pain… or the burden of having to say goodbye without the means to do so properly.

I’m humbly asking for help. My son didn’t have life insurance, and I want to lay him to rest with dignity and love. If you find it in your heart to give — no matter the amount — or even share this, it would mean the world to me and my family.

Thank you for every prayer, message, and act of kindness. Please keep us in your thoughts as we face the hardest days of our lives.

Rest in heaven, my forever little boy. Mama loves you forever.
