Amanda: Help us find closure!!!

Donation protected
Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted individuals,

We are reaching out to you during this incredibly difficult time to ask for your support for Ricky and Amanda's daughter, Skylar (10), and Amanda’s son, Mason (15). Tragically, Ricky's beloved girlfriend of 13 years and the mother of his child, Amanda, passed away unexpectedly in her sleep, just one day after celebrating her 37th birthday. We are hoping to raise funds to provide them with the opportunity to say their final goodbyes, find closure, and honor Amanda's memory the way she deserved.

Amanda's Story:

Amanda was an extraordinary woman, who touched the lives of many with her kind-hearted nature and unwavering love for her family. She had an infectiously joyful spirit and had a unique ability to bring a smile to anyone's face. Her love for the outdoors and being in and around water was unparalleled, always seeking solace and joy through nature's embrace. Amanda possessed an undeniable love for animals, and it seemed as though they were naturally drawn to her.

Moreover, Amanda dedicated her life to caring for others as a caregiver for the elderly and a para for autistic children. She had a bond with her clients and students and ensured they received the attention, care, and love they deserved. Amanda's passion and commitment showed that she had a heart bigger than words could express.

The Burden of Unexpected Loss:

The sudden passing of Amanda has left Ricky, Skylar, and Mason shattered and grappling with immense grief. In order to overcome their sorrow and begin the healing process, Ricky believes it is crucial to give his family the opportunity to view Amanda before her cremation.

Ricky and his family are also grieving the loss of Ricky's Grandmother, who passed away just days before Amanda. Amanda was also actively involved in the planning of her funeral before she passed away. You can only imagine the pain and sorrow that this family is going through.

However, the financial strain that accompanies such an unexpected loss has made it challenging for them to afford a final viewing and proper closure. Hence, we kindly seek your support to help Ricky, Skylar, and Mason grant a dignified farewell to their beloved Amanda.
