FUNDS WILL BE USED FOR

Support the family.

There was no life insurance to cushion the adjustment to one income. My (Rachel) hope is that we can help Kelly with the stress of immediate finances so she can focus on grieving and adjusting to life without her best friend. Thank you for any and all support :) --Rachel

    Josh was the most charismatic person I’ve ever known! His presence was magnetic, kind, smart, helpful, and strong. His laugh, and the way it took over his whole being was a delight that I will think about every time I remember him! ❤️
