Now the family is asking for donations to go towards the funeral cost for Valencia. 

"Everyone knows how hard it is to lose a loved one and even harder when it’s your child. He had so much growing up and living to do," stated Valencia's family member on the donation page. "I’m just asking for a little help because as his parents and family are trying to grieve it is also a hassle to try and figure things out when it comes to funeral cost. Please any little thing can help whatever you can send or afford thank you and God bless."
