More Info

On the morning of November 26th, Cassidy and Emanuel Bernardi's world was forever shattered when their precious three month old son, Leonardo Emanuel Bernardi, suddenly passed away. This heart-wrenching, tragic loss has left them devastated, and their lives forever changed. 

As first-time parents, Cassidy and Emanuel poured their hearts and souls into caring for little Leo. Those of us that spent time with this beautiful family know that being parents came naturally for Cass and Eman. From the moment Leo arrived, they didn’t skip a beat in being the most loving, dedicated, and selfless parents. Their love for him was and forever will be immeasurable. 

As they navigate this all consuming grief, and continue to try to survive amidst the heartbreak, the last thing we want them to be concerned about is finances. We have created this fundraiser to help support Cassidy and Emanuel during this incredibly painful time—by covering funeral expenses, helping with lost income as they take time off for bereavement, and providing them with the space they need to begin grieving. 

No parent should ever have to experience the loss of their child, and any support, no matter the size, will help ease the financial burdens they now face and allow them to focus on healing as a family.

Please keep Cassidy, Emanuel, and their sweet little Leo in your thoughts, prayers, and hearts during this incredibly difficult time. Your support and generosity will mean the world to them.
