This fundraiser was created several weeks ago when Melanie's cancer got to a point she could no longer work.  The funds were to help pay her mortgage and other housing expenses, health insurance and medical bills.  Sadly, we all know Melanie passed away yesterday.

The funds will continue to be used to support the expenses associated with her house, but will also help defray funeral expenses. Sincerest thanks - we know how much Melanie would appreciate this.
