As a close friend of the family and seeing first hand just how difficult the coming moments, days, weeks, months, and even years will be for them I just want to be able to do something to ease the road ahead.

Tragedy has struck in the most unimaginable way and so close to Christmas. My beautiful friend Tori and her amazing family have lost their beautiful little girl Aria at what is supposed to be the most magical and loved filled time of year. The fallout of media attention has only compounded this. I’m hoping to find the positive in social media.

In the midst of it all while they’re learning how to breathe each moment I’d wholeheartedly like to take at least one worry away which she hasn’t even considered will be a worry.

With the support of her family, I am trying to raise some funds for whatever comes up they will need, be it bills, housing, and most importantly space to heal without the added stress of having been away from work or any pressure to race back to it.

Tori is a single mother and military veteran, she gives so much to everyone around her, her love, her support, her time, and she’s given her all to serve her country. I just want to give her the space to heal and to support her family to heal. Any donation is appreciated. I know this time of year can be a stretch for many families when it comes to finances and I genuinely mean it when I say I believe every pound will add up.

For those who see this who have sent empathy and condolences, please know you are already appreciated
