Funeral and celebration of life for John Bijak

update:

Friends. There are no words. The outpouring of love, generosity, and support have lightened the load and we will never be able to fully convey how much it all means to us. Together we are able to lay John to rest. In peace. Thank you. ❤️

“I will be the answer at the end of the line

I will be there for you while you take the time

In the burning of uncertainty, I will be your solid ground

I will hold the balance if you can't look down

If it takes my whole life, I won't break, I won't bend

It'll all be worth it, worth it in the end

'Cause I can only tell you what I know

That I need you in my life

When the stars have all gone out

You'll still be burning so bright”

As you know, we lost our brother John this week. Though his death was tragic, his life mattered. Our mom and dad, along with our entire family, want a proper celebration of his life and funeral. One can never expect or plan for this. We are surrounded by such an immense outpouring of love and people wanting to help. So with the humblest heart, I set this up to cover funeral expenses. Please know we are eternally grateful for all the love and support. And our sincere thanks to all those who have already reached out. ❤️, Stasia and The Bijak Family
