Eugene Wessel Jr., affectionately known as "Bean," passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind a grieving family and community. His death has deeply impacted his daughters, who now face the additional burden of funeral expenses without the support of insurance.
Eugene, cherished for his kindness and dedication to his family, was surrounded by loved ones in his final moments. His greatest wish was always to protect his daughters, and now, in this time of profound loss, they are left to navigate their grief without him.
A fundraiser has been set up by Ashley Walker to assist with funeral and service costs, as well as to ease the financial strain on Eugene’s daughters. So far, $120 has been raised with the help of three generous donations. Among those supporting the family are Susan Raymond, Tonya Davis, and Julie Goldner.
Many have expressed their condolences and support through heartfelt Facebook posts. "RIP Eugene Wessel Jr. This breaks my heart. I’m gonna miss you my friend," wrote Irena Breese-Boone. Todd Semple added, "Sorry for your loss! I’ve been friends with Eugene Wessel Jr. since 7th grade at Warren Harding Jr High."
As the community rallies around his daughters during this challenging time, they hope to honor Eugene’s memory with a celebration of his life. The family is grateful for every contribution, which will allow them to say a final farewell in a way that truly reflects Eugene’s spirit and love.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Wessel family during this sorrowful time.
