Help lay beloved Billy Mayhew to rest

Donation protected

On August 19th, while on an annual family vacation at the cabin, family and friends received devastating news that their beloved Billy, their husband, father, brother-in-law, uncle, and friend, had tragically passed away. He went out on the boat with one of his dogs, Charlie, but never came back. 

Words cannot express the profound and deep sadness all those affected are feeling, especially Billy's family.

Myself, and three other college best friends of Sabrina (one of Billy's daughters) decided to start a GoFundMe for the family. We are asking for any donations at all, including meals, in order to help alleviate some stress and allow the family to grieve without having to worry about making food or expenses, especially those related to the funeral.  Please click HERE to access the link to the Meal Train website to volunteer to bring food to the family.  All donations will be given to Mary, Billy’s wife and the love of his life. This time is already vulnerable enough for them. Please help give Billy the proper send off and burial he deserves, to finally lay him to rest. 

Please send all of your love, thoughts, and prayers to Billy's family and friends. Feel free to share your favorite memories of him below in the comments. My personal favorite is that Billy never called me by my first name, it was always "Ginger" even though I'm a blonde. There is nothing quite like his sense of humor and his quick wit. He loved his family, his friends, and his pets with his whole entire heart. Billy will be deeply and truly missed by all.

Thank you for all of your love, support, and help <3 

With all of our love,

Lauren, Cameo, Emily, & Mwape
