Rodney's Children Need Your Support

With a heavy heart, I am reaching out to ask for your support during an incredibly difficult time. On 12/13/24, Rodney Gatewood passed away unexpectedly. His loss has left a huge void in the lives of his two children, Yazmen and Elijah, who are now navigating a world without the father who was their rock and protector. Yazmen and Elijah also lost their mother about a year and a half ago, so this sudden loss comes even heavier, for he was the last parent they had to guide them the rest of their journeys through life.

Rodney was more than just a father—he was a friend, a mentor, and a source of unwavering love. His passing has not only left an emotional burden but also a financial one, as his children are now faced with the sudden responsibility of handling the expenses that come with such a loss.

Yazzy and Elijah are young, and though they have the strength and resilience to carry on, they need your help. The funds raised through this campaign will assist with funeral costs, as well as support their immediate needs as they try to rebuild their lives without their father.

Every donation, no matter the size, will make a difference and bring them one step closer to finding hope again. Your kindness and generosity will help them heal and move forward, knowing that their father’s memory will live on in the love and care of the community surrounding them.

Thank you for being there during this heartbreaking time. Your support means the world to Yazmen and Elijah, and all who loved Rodney.
