In Loving Memory of Antoine: Help Support Raquel & Kids
Donation protected
It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Antoine Pierson on December 8, 2024, due to complications from congestive heart failure. Antoine was a loving partner to Raquel his long-time of 18 years, and a devoted father to his children. His loss has left a profound void in their lives, and the family is struggling not only with the emotional pain of losing a soulmate and father but also with the financial burden that follows such a devastating loss.
Over the past few years, Antoine’s health had been in steady decline, requiring frequent hospital visits and extended care. As his condition worsened, Raquel made the brave decision to leave her job to care for him full-time. This meant a significant reduction in the family’s income, but Raquel never hesitated to put Antoine’s well-being first. Now, with Antoine’s passing, Raquel is facing the overwhelming task of managing burial costs, rent, and bills, all while trying to remain strong for the children and navigate this difficult transition.
The funeral for Antoine will be held on January 6, 2025, and any support—whether large or small—would mean the world to Raquel and the kids during this incredibly challenging time. All donations will go directly toward burial expenses, rent, utility bills, and providing for the children while Raquel works to get back on her feet and find employment.
Please consider contributing to ease some of the financial burden Raquel is facing. Your support, whether through a donation or simply sharing this campaign, is deeply appreciated. No amount is too small, and every contribution helps to lift some of the weight off her shoulders as she navigates this painful journey.
Thank you for your kindness, love, and generosity.
