We are deeply saddened to announce the heartbreaking loss of Michael LaMotte, a vibrant 14-year-old boy whose life was tragically cut short. He was taken from us in a senseless act of violence, leaving an irreplaceable void in the hearts of all who had the privilege to know him.

Michael was not just a beloved son and brother; he was a true friend to many. His laughter, kindness, and unyielding spirit brought joy to those around him. The love and memories he shared will forever be cherished, and his presence will be profoundly missed.

In light of this unimaginable tragedy, we have set up a fundraiser to support Michael's family during this incredibly difficult time. The funds raised will assist with expenses, grief support, and the unexpected costs that arise from such a profound loss. Please visit: https://gofund.me/8aecaab0 and/or https://mealtrain.com/w0e560

As we remember Michael and his radiant spirit, let us come together to provide comfort and support to his family, honoring the remarkable young man he was and ensuring his legacy continues to shine brightly in our lives.

Funeral Services are pending at this time and will be updated here on the obituary page.
