How you can help

Dear Friends and Family,

With heavy hearts, my sisters and I share the devastating loss of our beloved father, William (affectionately known as “Jay” or Will). His passing was unexpected, and while we navigate this profound grief, we are also faced with the financial challenge of bringing him home from Florida for a proper service and burial.

We want nothing more than to honor his memory, give him the farewell he deserves, and say our final goodbyes surrounded by loved ones. Any support you can offer—whether through a donation or simply by sharing this fundraiser—means the world to us and brings us closer to making this possible.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, generosity, and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

With Love,
Nakiia, Shaleia, Dasia & Ayla
