Funds to help Tiala's husband & daughter

Donation protected
On March 2nd, 2021, Tiala Balane (Schmidt) lost her life to a battle of depression at the young age of 24, leaving behind a wonderful husband and beautiful, 11 month old daughter.

Tiala was a truly loving and caring person. She was the type of person that was passionate about fighting against the injustices of the world and helping those in need. In one instance, back in July, Tiala stopped traffic in the middle of a highway and directed traffic around a motorist accident she had witnessed. She wanted to protect him from anymore possible damage. This is just one instance of her love she had for people in action. 

Tiala loved to laugh and had a playful personality. She often would make silly videos with her husband and enjoyed watching anime and Korean Dramas' in her spare time. 

Tiala and her husband, Matt, shared the burden of financial responsibility. With the loss of Tiala, Matt will now have to bear the financial burden on his own for him and his daughter. With the accumulating costs of funeral expenses for his wife and basic life needs and responsibilities, the family could use the financial help. 

The funds will be allocated to funeral and basic expenses for Tiala's family. 

Like any other unexpected tragedy, no family can be mentally, emotionally and financially prepared, so any donation is greatly appreciated and will help tremendously. We thank you all for your love, support and prayers during this time. 

Rest In Peace, Tiala. We love you.
