Friday morning, April 11th, 2025, my family lost a wife/mother/daughter and grandmother in a tragic accident. This is devastating and heartbreaking. She was our whole world.

At this time, my dad, my brother, and I are all out of work due to having to figure out how to process and deal with all the legal changes and to be here for our minor siblings. We don’t know the steps from here since my dad is a long-haul driver. We are making this so people can help if they want to. We aren’t asking for donations, but several people are asking if they can help us. The minimum funeral will be $10,000. She wanted to be buried in the family cemetery and did not want to be cremated.

My family appreciates all the prayers, and if you can help us out with the funeral costs, that would be greatly appreciated. Bates Funeral Home in DeKalb, Texas, is who will be helping us with this if you want to call them directly and donate. Thank you all for saying a prayer for us. My smaller siblings need it the most. She was a full-time stay-at-home mom with them.
