The late Melody Ramon was from San Diego. Her family and friends are now grappling with the heart-wrenching task of preparing her funeral and supporting her two young daughters, ages 5 and 9. This loss has devastated the community. Fernando Gonzalez, her partner, is raising funds for her memorial through a GoFundMe campaign.
"Hello to all Melody’s family and friends, unfortunately my Melody has lost her battle to cancer," Fernando wrote. "She was fighting for 5 years. She left two beautiful daughters behind. She was the best thing that’s ever happened to me and I’m so grateful to have been able to do all I could to make her transition to heaven much more comfortable. Rest in Heaven, my love. Thank you for the best 25 years of my life. And thank you for my babies."
Fernando’s fundraiser aims to raise $10,000 to cover the funeral expenses and provide support for Melody’s children. As of today, he is still seeking supporters. The GoFundMe page guarantees the protection of donations, ensuring a full refund in the rare case of fraud.
Friends and community members have been sharing their support on social media. Anahi Otero urged everyone, "Please share, & if you can’t make a donation!"
Melody’s legacy lives on through her daughters and the memories cherished by those who loved her. The community’s efforts to raise funds highlight the profound impact she had on those around her and the collective desire to honor her memory and support her family during this difficult time.
