Ric Castaneda, beloved brother, husband, and father from Hercules, California, recently passed away after a courageous battle with cancer. His family and community are deeply mourning his loss while trying to support his wife, Sandra, and their son through this challenging time.
A fundraiser organized by Chinwe Omani on GoFundMe aims to help the Castaneda family with their financial struggles following Ric’s passing. The goal is to raise $12,000, and so far, only $50 has been donated.

Chinwe Omani expressed heartfelt sentiments on the GoFundMe page, stating, "Ric fought valiantly in faith and all who knew and loved him prayed and stood with him until his last breath. Our hearts grieve this loss but we know he is eternally healed and no longer in pain. Ric, you are so missed and loved."
As the community rallies to support the Castaneda family, their appreciation for any help is evident. "Thanks so much for taking the time to read this, your attention and heart is so appreciated," Chinwe wrote, underscoring the importance of collective support during such a difficult period.
The loss of Ric Castaneda has left a significant void, but the efforts to assist his family reflect the enduring love and solidarity of those who knew him.
