Chad Spodick’s cause of death has been confirmed days after his loved ones announced his death.

Best known for being a contestant on the 2016 Logo reality series Finding Prince Charming, Spodick’s death was announced on a GoFundMe page, created to raise money to cover funeral expenses.

A spokesperson for the Boca Raton police department told *People *Spodick died by suicide. The investigation remains open, but no further details were provided.

The GoFundMe page, posted five days ago by Kate Werbowski, reads that the former reality star’s loved ones are “still struggling to comprehend a world without his light” after Spodick’s “devastating” loss.

“Chad was the type of person who poured himself into others,” the page read. “He lifted up his friends, encouraged everyone around him to grow, to advocate for themselves, and to believe in their own worth. His love for animals was unmatched — he cared deeply for every creature, especially his four beloved dogs and his bird, Cosmo.”

“The world was brighter with Chad in it, and those who were lucky enough to know him felt the warmth of his heart every day,” the page’s description continued.

The fundraiser was originally set up for the benefit of Spodick’s mother, Felice Harwood, who is dealing with the “unexpected financial burden of funeral arrangements and ongoing living expenses.”

“We are coming together as a community to support her and Chad’s animals during this incredibly painful time. We are raising funds to help cover: funeral and memorial service costs, immediate living expenses for his mother, care needs for Chad’s pets during this transition,” the GoFundMe page read.

As of Tuesday afternoon, the GoFundMe page has earned over $28,000 of its $35,000 goal.

Spodick was one of 13 men who appeared on Finding Prince Charming, a Bachelor-style reality show competing for the “prince,” Robert Sepélveda Jr.’s heart.

After being on the show for six weeks, Spodick quit and went on to accuse Sepélveda of trying to date other men on the show after it ended, JustJared reported.
