Memorial Fund for Vicky VanDyke

Donation protected
My name is Cassie and I am trying to raise funds to help with funeral costs for my mother, Vicky VanDyke. Let me tell you a little about her. She was such a bright wonderful soul. Mom loved Jesus more than anything. She prayed for everyone she meet and loved even strangers with a heart of gold.  She never missed the opportunity to share God's love with anyone she sensed needed it right then. She was so smart and worked hard to obtain a master's degree in education. She spent many years as a high school teacher in Las Vegas at Chapperall High School and then East Career Tech. Her students meant the world to her and she poured so much love and effort into given them the tools they needed to be successful. She has 6 beautiful grand kids they were her pride and joy. She loved being a grandma and was so proud to show off pictures or talk about accomplishments her grandbabies did. She didn't always havea lot to give but if you needed something she would be there to help in anyway she was able to.  
Recently she had been battling with low blood pressure issues. She had been in thehospital and they started her on some new medicine to raiseher blood pressure.  She was feeling great on Thursday night. She said the medicine was really helping. Friday morning, Oct 30th 2020, she woke up and asked Grandma if she wanted to go to breakfast. So they headed to their favorite diner. While at the restaurant she started to feel weird and dizzy. She started to go in and out of consciousness a few times. The ambiance was called for her and when They arrived she was alert and talking with the paramedics. They wanted to take her to the hospital anyway to get looked at and surprisingly she agreed (we all know how stubborn she could be).  So they headed to the hospital but unfortunately on the way her heart gave out and she went into cardiac arrest. The paramedics and the hospital staff did everything they could but it wasnt enough to keep her here with us. 
The sudden unexpected passing of my mom left a financial burden for funeral expenses. Her grandsons desperately want the chance to see her one last time. So I'm asking for any little bit that you may be able to spare in order to help her grandkids, her friends, her family and myself to be able to say goodbye.
Thank you for reading and thank you for anything you can help with. I know Mom loves you all.
