Please help me say goodbye to my dad

To anyone and everyone kind enough to read this,

It is with a broken heart that I share the news of the passing of my dad, Jose Lopez. To many, my dad was a quiet man but someone always willing to lend a hand or an ear. He’d give you the clothes off his back if you needed them or simply know the right words to guide you back on track. To me, he was my rock, my guide, my twin, my… dad. Losing him has created an ocean of grief that I am unsure I’ll ever swim out of. I’m unsure I could ever find the right words to truly express the depth of my grief.

However, as we prepare to say our final goodbyes, I am faced with the unexpected financial burden of cremation and service costs. I want to give my dad the dignified and loving farewell he deserves, but I cannot do it alone. I am asking for your support in helping cover the expenses during this incredibly difficult time.

Any contribution, no matter how small, would mean the world to me and my family. Your generosity will allow me to focus on grieving and honoring my dad’s memory, rather than worrying about the financial strain. Any and all contributions will go to cremations costs and a Masonic memorial service.

Memorial service date to be announced as soon as I can secure a place.

If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this page with others who may be willing to help. I am forever grateful for your support, love, and prayers.

Thank you,

Ayana Lopez & Family
