Cora Sue Sansom Emergency Funeral Expenses

Donation protected
My mother used to drive me to and from work. Thursday we said good by as normal and texted at lunch, but she wasn't there to pick me up at the expected time. I waited a little while passed the latest she had ever been. That's when I started to panic. I took an Uber home and found her at about 9:40. She had a massive stroke as she was getting ready. They took her by helicopter to St David's hospital where she passed away at 3:30am on the 4th. It came out of nowhere. She was retired and had no life insurance. We are asking that in lieu of flowers that you please donate that to this fund. We are trying to give my mother the funeral she deserves and would have wanted, something simple and dignified, just like her. My mother always said, "I want you to know, if you know one thing. Your Mother Loves You." We know and that has been what is getting us through this.  We love our Mother and want to do right by her, but it has been a hard year already. My eldest sister Audrey has just bought a house and is recovering from major surgery, and Ellie is pregnant with her first child.  My father is in the nursing home with end stage kidney failure and Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Mom was his primary care giver and main point of contact with his doctors and the home. They used to say that they where married for twenty years and friends for twenty years. They depended on each other, and Mom always went to and valued my Father's advice. Anything you can do to help will be so very appreciated.
