  • A Thank You Message From Soo Bel

    To those who donate and shared our son's story, we are humbled by your help. We thank you so much. We are heart broken by our loss, so it is difficult to write these words. Your help means so much to us. Our son could not experience many things in life, but his life was good. In heaven he does not have cancer. We miss him but we know he is happy. We won't forget your help!

About this fundraiser

On November 2nd, 2025, we lost a beloved member of our community, Joseph Bel, at just 37 years old. Joseph was a kind-hearted man whose gentle spirit and warm presence touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. He was cherished by neighbors, friends, and anyone who crossed his path—always remembered for his sincerity and the quiet joy he brought into the world. 

Joseph leaves behind his parents, who are grieving the unimaginable loss of their son. In addition to their heartbreak, they are now facing significant financial strain as they work to cover the cost of his cremation. With limited means and mounting expenses, they need support from those who knew Joseph and those moved by his story. 

We are asking for help to ensure that Joseph receives a respectful, dignified farewell. Every donation—no matter the amount—brings his parents one step closer to easing this burden during an incredibly difficult time. If you are unable to contribute financially, please consider sharing this fundraiser to help us reach others who may be able to help. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and compassion. Your support means more than words can express.
