Support for Kristoff's Family in Their Time of Loss

Hi, my name is Marissa Miller.

I am creating this account with the hopes of helping my family to raise funds for my nephew, Kristoff Francis Collins, and his surviving two sisters and mother, my sister, Tanessa Miller. Kristoff was born on October 17, 2018. On Wednesday, October 16, 2024, it was 6 a.m. on what you'd consider a "normal" day. My sister was trying to wake Kristoff up only to find out God took him home. He grew wings and became one with heaven earlier that morning before school. Kristoff was diagnosed with epilepsy and suffered from random seizures, but this time, it happened during his sleep and he didn't wake up. Only God knows why he needs him so soon. Kristoff just started kindergarten this year, and he has blossomed into such a fine young gentleman over these very short years. He is loving, happy, sweet, and gives the tightest, warmest hugs. He is selfless and always makes sure that everyone is happy and not sad. Kristoff loves so hard and everyone loves him back just as hard. His smile lights up everyone who has seen it, and his questions about the world were endless. With a village full of support and all the love in the world, no one ever plans for the loss of a child. I am creating this GoFundMe to not only help with expenses for laying Kristoff to rest, but to also help my sister with being out of work to grieve and get the mental help she needs while still being able to take care of her small family that's left. Our entire family is heartbroken and torn, and we're asking any friends, family, or anyone who is able to help us help them, no matter how big or small. Kristoff is a very loved son, brother, nephew, grandson, and great-grandson, and he will be deeply missed. My family appreciates everyone's support and any contributions.
