Support Crystal and family in memory of Thomas Rogers
Donation protected
On the evening of December 4th, 2024, our beloved Crystal faced an unimaginable tragedy with the sudden and unexpected loss of her partner and "LOML", Thomas Rogers. This heartbreaking event has left her and their two young children, Uriah (11) and Camilah (5), in the most devastating and vulnerable situation one could ever imagine. Thomas also leaves behind his son, Little Tom (29) who currently resides in Florida.
Thomas had fallen ill with a fever just before Thanksgiving. His fever would come and go and there'd be moments where he assured everyone he was okay. Unfortunately, the fever persisted. On Wednesday, 12/4, he went about his normal routine. However, that evening he passed unexpectedly in their Morgan Hill home.
Crystal and Thomas have been together for 16 years. He would've turned 49 as of December 6th. Thomas was the pillar of the family, incredibly smart, and was an advocate for his children's success. He had an interesting sense of humor, loved the Buccaneers (to the point he converted Crystal into a huge fan). He did everything and anything for his family. He will truly be missed.
To help alleviate some of the financial burdens during this incredibly difficult time, we have created this GoFundMe page. The funds raised will assist with immediate expenses, including funeral arrangements, mortgage payments, meals, childcare, and other necessities allowing Crystal to focus on healing and caring for her babies.
How you can help:
- Donate: Any amount, no matter how small, can make a significant difference. You can also Venmo Crystal directly at: @crysfit424.
- Share: Please share this fundraiser link with your network to help us reach more people who may want to support Crystal and her family.
- Words of Support & Prayer: Feel free to leave messages of love, encouragement, and prayer on the page. Your words can provide comfort during this difficult time.
Let's come together to show Crystal, her children, and the Rogers family that they are not alone in this journey. Your generosity and support will mean so much to her as they navigate this heartbreaking loss, especially during this holiday season.
Thank you for your kindness and compassion.
