It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our beloved father after his battle with congestive heart failure. As his condition worsened, other health complications continued to arise, and despite his strength and determination, his body could no longer keep fighting. Our parents shared an incredible 46 years of marriage. My father was the primary provider for our family, and his passing has left our mother not only grieving the love of her life but also facing the overwhelming financial burden of funeral expenses. His loss was unexpected, and we were simply not prepared for the costs that come with saying goodbye.
My father was so much more than a husband. He was a devoted father, uncle, brother, friend, and an incredible grandfather to his three grandchildren, Peter, Noah, and Luxtyn. He loved his children, Christopher and Ashley, with all his heart and never missed an opportunity to remind us how proud he was of us. For more than 35 years, he was a proud business owner who worked tirelessly to provide for his family. He was known for his strong work ethic, his kindness, and his willingness to help others whenever he could. Above all, his unwavering love and commitment to his wife of 46 years were evident in everything he did.
Asking for help is something our family never imagined we would have to do. It is incredibly difficult, but during this heartbreaking time, we are reaching out to our family, friends, and community for support. Any contribution, no matter the amount, will go directly toward funeral and memorial expenses and will help ease the financial burden on our mother as she navigates this unimaginable loss. If you are unable to donate, we completely understand. Sharing this fundraiser and keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers means more than words can express. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support as we honor the life of an extraordinary man.
