Raymond Calderon Memorial Fund

So I never thought I’d have to make one of these but here it goes. Yesterday my baby brother Raymond left this life and is now free of any pain or suffering. Raymond was a Registered Nurse, BSN that gave his life and his time to provide healing and comfort to as many people as possible. Ray was a fitting name for him as he warmed and brightened any who came in contact with him. It was impossible to be sad or in a bad mood when he was around; his joy and laughter was contagious.

Ray was one of the most selfless and generous people I’ve ever met. He’d give someone the shirt off his back if he thought they needed it more. His passing was completely unexpected and has left my family emotionally devastated and left his fiancé Tianna the love of his life for the last 14 years with a mountain of expenses.

With a large majority of their combined income gone with my brother, I’m looking to help raise any possible funds to help ease the financial burden of burial/cremation costs. Raymond was the type to never want to burden anyone or ask for help, but I also know he’d want me to do anything I could to help Tianna. As Ray’s failing health left him unable to work for a few months before his untimely passing any funds over the goal will go towards helping Tianna get back on her feet after this devastating and unexpected loss.

Thank you all so much for your help and support. I know Raymond would be touched. Rest easy Raymond I love you so much and so proud to be able to call myself your big brother.
