In memory of Guandoong Lul Riek
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Courtney. I'm setting this GoFundMe up on behalf of the family of Guandoong Lul Riek. I knew him as G, but more importantly, I knew him as one of my brother and son's closest friends. I got to know him as they all navigated high school. I knew him as they said goodbye to childish things and entered into adult decisions like apartment living and paying bills. I knew him as he navigated various health issues while maintaining an upbeat outlook on life. I knew him as a young man that was always willing to help those around him in need. Someone who lived his life with purpose and a plan for the future. I knew him as someone that LIVED. Now we will learn to live in a world without him. That world will be dimmer and yet a better place having had G in it.
If G contributed to your life in any way, please feel free to contribute to this GoFundMe in his honor.
