Greetings Bangers,
It is with a heavy heart that I must write that my sister, Cori Evans, lost the love of her life, Eric Shaw, father of their son Lil Eric, and his daughter Parris, suddenly on July 31, 2025. If you can find it in your heart, please donate, whatever amount you can to our GO FUND ME fundraiser, to assist with funeral arrangements, immediate living expenses, grief support and securing a stable future for Lil Eric.

On July 31, 2025, we lost Eric. My boy was an incredible father, partner, and friend. His passing was sudden, without warning, and unbelievable. For those who knew Eric, you know he was a beacon of light, bringing laughter and joy wherever he went. His sudden departure has left an immense void in our lives, and we are all grappling with this profound loss. It has also left a deep void in the lives of those who loved him, especially his longtime partner, Cori, their son Eric, and his daughter Paris.
Eric and Cori
Eric and Cori shared 23 beautiful years together, building a life full of love, laughter, and resilience. Now, in the wake of this unimaginable loss, Cori faces the daunting challenge of navigating life as the sole provider for their family. The emotional toll on her, we can only imagine, and the financial burden is overwhelming.
I’m asking for your help to raise $15,000 to support Cori, her son, and Eric’s daughter during this difficult transition. We know that many of you are searching for ways to offer your support, and contributing to this fund would be the most meaningful way to help her right now. If our goal is met, your generosity will directly assist her in covering funeral arrangements, immediate living expenses, grief support, and securing a stable future for Lil Eric. More importantly, it will allow them the opportunity to focus on grieving and celebrating the wonderful life Eric lived.
Eric and daughter Parris
If you knew Eric, you know how deeply he cared for his family and friends. If you didn’t, please know that your kindness will help carry forward the love he gave so freely. Every donation, no matter the amount, makes a difference. Also, if you’re unable to give, sharing this campaign means the world.

Thank you for your love, your prayers, and for standing with Cori and the children as they begin to heal during this incredibly challenging time.
