Jade Bowring’s Family Fund
On the morning of the 15 December, the world lost one of its brightest sparks. Jade - a new mum to Dylan, a loving wife to Harley, precious daughter of Rick & Jill, & an incredible friend to many - passed away unexpectedly. Just a mere 10 days before what should have been this beautiful young family’s first Christmas together.
She was 28 years old.
There are not enough words to sum up Jade’s short time on Earth. She was not dealt the easiest of cards & has faced more challenges than most. Despite these hard times, Jade was a true warrior & bravely faced each battle with positivity in her mind, trust in her body, & strength in her heart. She always came out smiling on the other end.
Those that knew her would describe her as loving, kind, humble, compassionate, strong, warm, beautiful. Her smile & laugh would light up a room. She was passionate about helping others & would be the first to lend a hand, offer a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on. She taught those around her to love unconditionally, be kinder than you feel, to never pass judgment & to live life to the fullest.
Jade married the love of her life, Harley, on the 8 December 2013.
They welcomed their miracle baby girl, Dylan, on the 26 June 2019.
Being a mother was what Jade was most proud of - her biggest achievement. It’s heartbreaking to know that Dylan will never feel her mother’s arms hold her again, or feel the gravity of the love that she had for her. However, there will be many of us that will tell Dylan stories of her kind & courageous mum, & how much she loved her & her Dad.
So for this Christmas, please open your hearts to support this beautiful family. For a little girl who will never get the chance to know her mother. For a husband, parents, family, & friends who are experiencing heartbreak beyond comprehension. And for everyone whose lives were enriched through knowing the incredible Jade. We are all better people for having met you.
Every dollar, big or small, will help contribute to financially supporting Harley & Dylan’s future.
In Jade’s words, “choose to thrive rather than survive”. We love you Jade. You may be gone, but we feel your love all around us.
