Urgent Aid for Gerick's Loss & Travel to the PH
On the morning of December 2nd, 2024, it was announced that my spouse, Gerick Catimbang's father, Lauro (Larry) Basilio Catimbang Sr., passed away suddenly due to health complications while visiting family in the Cebu area of the Philippines.
Right now, the plan is to send Gerick and myself to the Philippines in this coming Saturday to meet his mom and make funeral arrangements for the next 2 weeks we are there.
In the spirit of solidarity and love, I want to humbly ask for help from anyone, from family, friends, and our acquaintances to help raise money for the plane tickets and any extra funeral/travel costs.
I understand that December is a big holiday month, but rather than getting a big gift for yourself, loved ones, or for Xmas gift exchanges, please consider donating to a good cause to help us have sound minds and secure finances once we come back to the US.
Instead of sending sympathy flowers, please donate any amount which will quickly add up, even if it's a couple of dollars; it will help us greatly.
Thank you. If you have any questions, please let me know via text, GoFundMe, or phone call.
NOTE: I will be posting a receipt list later on to be transparent about where the funds go to.
