Help Secure Ayden's Future in Memory of Carena

Donation protected
This week our family has been shattered by the devastating and senseless loss of Carena Lashey Piccinotti. On Saturday, October 5th, her life was tragically cut short in an unimaginable way, leaving behind Ayden Piccinotti Brajkovich her beautiful 3-year-old son. He is too young to understand the magnitude of what has happened, but he knows his Mom has gone to live in the sky. While it will take a lifetime for him to try and understand why his mother was so needlessly taken from him, his life has now been forever changed.

Carena was a loving mother, daughter, sister, and friend. Her heart was as big as her smile, and her greatest joy in life was being a mother to Ayden. Her sudden loss has left an unimaginable hole in all of our hearts, a void that will never truly be filled.

As we struggle to cope with this profound grief, we also face the overwhelming responsibility of ensuring Ayden has the stable, loving future his mother would have provided. We want to honor Carena by giving her son the care, support, and opportunities she dreamed of for him.

We are asking for your help to ensure Ayden is cared for in the way his mother would have wanted.

Any contribution, big or small, will go directly towards Carena’s legacy, as well as supporting Ayden’s immediate needs and securing his future after this devastating loss.

This is a heartbreaking time for our family, and we deeply appreciate any support, prayers, and shares of this campaign. Together, we can help provide a stable future for Ayden, by helping to provide the future Carena would have wanted for him.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and generosity.

Rena Bena, we all love and miss you more than words can possibly express…
