In Loving Memory of Preston Obeidin
We are heartbroken to share the passing of Preston Obeidin—a radiant light in the lives of everyone who knew him. Preston was the kind of person you never forget. His heart was as vast as the ocean he loved so much. Whether he was surfing the waves, skating through town, or simply spending time with his friends, he carried a joy and energy that lifted everyone around him.
The beach wasn’t just a place to Preston—it was home. He dreamed of building a life around the things he loved, with big plans to become an entrepreneur and create something meaningful in the world. Preston’s kindness knew no limits. If someone was in need, he was the first to step up—he would’ve given the shirt off his back without a second thought. No one ever had a bad word to say about him. He brought people together with ease, always the most positive person in the room.
Preston’s greatest love, though, was for his parents. He cherished his mother, Jennifer, a dedicated teacher, and his father, Josh, with all his heart. Now, they are left navigating an unimaginable loss.
This GoFundMe is to support Jennifer and Josh during this incredibly difficult time—whether to help with memorial expenses, time off work, or simply to provide some peace of mind as they grieve the beautiful soul of their son.
If you can donate, please do. And if not, please share. Let’s surround Preston’s family with the same love and support that Preston so freely gave to all of us.
Thank you for being a part of his story.
