If we’re still shocked and saddened by the passing of Lazarus A.D. drummer Ryan Shutler, we can’t imagine how his bandmates and family feel. And while there’s not fans and friends of him can do, they can donate to a GoFundMe campaign that was started. The campaign will help pay for his funeral and memorial expenses, which is a worthy cause if you’ve ever been touched by Shutler or his music. Here’s what the band’s Facebook page says:

On Sunday, May 17, 2015, Ryan Shutler unexpectedly passed away. There is much grief and many unanswered questions.

So many people have reached out asking for ways to help the Shutler family. There are going to be many expenses, and we want to make sure that money is not a stress or a concern for them at this time of sudden loss. If you feel inclined to help and support their family, please do so. It’s times like this that we greatly appreciate the extended family and friends who have reached out to offer support, love, and help.

100% of the proceeds will be donated to offset the cost of funeral/ memorial expenses.

We love you all and are so very grateful for your calls, texts, facebook comments, and prayers. The Shutler family, have a long road of grieving and healing ahead. We want this time for them to be as stress free as possible. Please donate as you feel inclined, as no donation is too small.
On behalf of the Shutler family and Ryan’s bandmates, thank you all so much.

This GoFundMe effort is to directly pay for funeral/ memorial expenses for Ryan Shutler.

Please spread the word and share with everyone you know…

Here’s where you can donate.
