Support Walter's Final Journey Home

Donation protected

Hello, I am Laura Young. I am trying to raise money for a sweet young man named Walter Moran Ruiz. Walter passed away on Sunday October 6th, 2024 after a 6 year long battle with AML Leukemia. He was only 23 years old. Walter was so determined to beat cancer and join the US Army. He was always smiling no matter how much he was being poked and prodded. He taught us that no matter what you are going through, keep fighting and always stay positive. I am raising money to bring him back home to Carthage ,MO from Barnes Hospital in St Louis, so he can be laid to finally rest with no pain. If you can spare anything to help the family with those costs, I would greatly appreciate it.

Hola, soy Laura joven. Estoy tratando de recaudar dinero para un dulce joven llamado Walter Moran Ruiz. Walter falleció el domingo 6 de octubre de 2024 después de una batalla de 6 años contra la leucemia AML. Tenía sólo 23 años. Walter estaba decidido a vencer el cáncer y alistarse en el ejército estadounidense. Siempre estaba sonriendo sin importar cuánto lo empujaran y empujaran. Nos enseñó que no importa lo que estés pasando, sigue luchando y mantente siempre positivo. Estoy recaudando dinero para traerlo de regreso a casa en Carthage, MO desde el Hospital Barnes en St Louis, para que finalmente pueda descansar sin dolor. Si puede ahorrar algo para ayudar a la familia con esos costos, se lo agradecería mucho.
