Help Bring Ralph Home to Rest in Peace

It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of Ralph Akintope Adedeji, who tragically left us at the young age of 19 on September 29, 2024. Ralph was a beloved son, friend, family member, and exemplary student, awarded a full scholarship to Tulane University. He had big dreams of becoming a pediatric surgeon, gaining valuable experience through the SHPEP medical program and volunteering at New Orleans Children’s Hospital.

Ralph was deeply admired by many for his respectfulness, charisma, and ability to effortlessly make friends. His presence could light up any room, and his laughter was contagious. We are incredibly proud of all that he accomplished and will forever cherish his memory.

During this difficult time, we are reaching out for any support you can offer to help through this sudden and heartbreaking loss. We are trying to raise funds to bring his body back to Los Angeles, where we hope to lay him to rest close to his mother.

Your generosity and kindness would mean the world to his family and all of us who cared for him. Any contribution, no matter the amount, would be deeply appreciated.

Thank you for your support and compassion during this time.
