Help Cover Jose's Funeral and Medical Expenses

Donation protected
Hi, I’m Raul Placensia, Jose’s older brother.
Jose was only 17 ,full of light‑hearted mischief and always ready to make you laugh. We were so close growing up that people often mistook us for twins. I love you, little bro.

On April 19, 2025, at 11:15 PM, Jose was involved in a head‑on collision. He clung to life until he reached KU‑MED, where a team of 15–20 specialists treated him for severe blood trauma. Despite their efforts and emergency CPR, he passed away shortly afterward.

To everyone who has reached out with kind words and support: thank you from the bottom of my heart. As an older brother who lost our baby sister five years ago, it pains me deeply to share this news again. We are raising funds to cover funeral expenses, replace lost wages due to time off work, and pay outstanding medical bills.
(funeral home to be determined, the date shown is not accurate we aren’t sure when the service will be, I’ll update it accordingly and will post it on my social media page on Snapchat. kc.raul <—- is my username)

Any gift, even $5, will help our family during this difficult season. Thank you for your love and support.
