Donate in memory of Antonio Poole

Hi, my name is Ashleigh Mellard. I was the 4th grade teacher of Antonio Poole Jr., Antonio Sr.'s only son. I have had the pleasure of knowing Deondra, one of Antonio's 11 siblings. Deondra, Antonio's sister, shared the terrible news that Antonio Poole was murdered on Thursday, 4/11/2024 in Oakland, California.

Antonio, 36 years old, was born and raised in Oakland, California. He was survived by his mother, Roseanna Ruiz, 11 siblings, 9 year old son, Antonio, 13 year old daughter, Sanaa, many nieces, nephews, uncles, aunties, and cousins.

Antonio's family is currently mourning his death. When we lose a loved one, planning a funeral can be very difficult. Funeral expenses happen all at once, leaving many families wondering how to cover the cost.

I am hoping you can donate anything you can to help this family through this very difficult time.
