How you can help

Tamia Costello, a vibrant and loving 22-year-old, was taken from us far too soon in a senseless act of violence. On what seemed like an ordinary day, Tamia's life was cut short by a hit-and-run driver, leaving our family devastated and grappling with unimaginable grief. She was more than just a daughter, sister, and friend; she was the heart of our family, radiating warmth and joy to everyone she met.

The pain of losing Tamia is overwhelming, but compounded by the unexpected financial burden of additional funeral expenses, it feels unbearable. We never anticipated having to say goodbye to our beloved Tamia under such tragic circumstances, and the costs associated with her funeral have exceeded what we are able to manage alone. In addition to this, we are determined to seek justice for Tamia. The person responsible for this heartless act is still at large, and we need to offer a reward to encourage anyone with information to come forward.

We are reaching out to our community, friends, and kind-hearted strangers for help. Your support will not only help us give Tamia the dignified farewell she deserves but will also aid in bringing the perpetrator to justice. Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to finding peace and holding those responsible accountable for their actions.

Our hearts are heavy with sorrow, but the love and support from our community can help lighten this burden. We are eternally grateful for any assistance you can provide during this incredibly difficult time. Please help us honor Tamia's memory and seek justice for her senseless death. Together, we can ensure that Tamia’s light continues to shine, even in her absence.

With deepest gratitude,

The Family of Tamia Costello Contribute
