A young Lake Chelan resident died after an asthma attack and a GoFundMe campaign is nearing it's goal to support the family.

20 year old Oscar Jimenez suffered an asthma attack and suffered irreversible brain damage on May 19th.  With no signs of brain activity, his parents, Catalina and Carlos Jimenez had to make the heart breaking decision to remove their son from life support.  Oscar passed away surrounded by family and friends on May 21st.

Catalina (Cat) Jimenez is the owner of the Lake Chelan Bakery where Oscar sometimes worked and many in the community were acquainted with.
