Gilbert Gerardo, Honolulu—The Gerardo family is mourning the loss of their beloved father, Gilbert Gerardo, who passed away on August 8th after suffering from a severe brain bleed that left him in a coma for nine days in the Neuro Intensive Care Unit (ICU). His passing has left an indelible void in the lives of those who knew him.
Gilbert was a devoted father, son, partner, brother, uncle, and friend, known for his infectious humor, unwavering dedication to his family, and a love for fishing. He was the kind of person who would light up any room with his smile and laugh, never taking himself too seriously and always working tirelessly to provide for his family. Despite recent health challenges, he remained committed to supporting his children, Kiara Mae and Lucky Gerardo, whom he cherished deeply.
In the wake of his passing, his children are determined to honor his final wishes by providing him with a traditional burial. However, without life insurance and the emotional and financial strain of planning a funeral, they have found this process incredibly challenging. To help cover the costs of the funeral, including the celebration of life, transportation, casket, and burial plot, Kiara has organized a fundraiser with a goal of $5,000.
So far, the fundraiser has raised $350 from six donations, with contributions from Richelle Kikiloi, Alexandria Buchanan, and several anonymous donors. The family is deeply appreciative of the support they have received so far and is asking for continued help, whether through donations or prayers, to ensure they can give their father the farewell he deserves.
The love and dedication Gilbert showed to his family will forever be remembered. His children, along with the rest of the family and friends, will hold his memory close to their hearts as they navigate this difficult time.
We extend our deepest condolences to the Gerardo family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of grief.
