My heart is heavy as I write this. I am asking for help to cover the expenses for a memorial service and provide my sister, a beautiful soul and mother of four, with the peaceful final resting place she deserves.

My sister, Krystal Anderson, was kidnapped and murdered in August 2022 in Aiken, South Carolina. Nearly four years later, in May 2026, authorities were led to her buried remains by the man responsible for taking her life.

The past four years have been an incredibly painful journey for our family—especially for my mother, myself, and Krystal’s four children. While grieving this unimaginable loss, we have also continued to fight for justice. As we prepare for the hearing in July 2026, we are once again faced with the emotional weight of reliving this tragedy.

Every August since Krystal went missing our family has gathered for a prayer vigil, releasing balloons and praying for a miracle that Krystal would be found. This year, instead of praying for her return, we will join together to officially say our goodbyes and lay our sweet angel to rest, surrounded by family, friends, and supporters who have stood beside us throughout this difficult journey.

These past painful years have placed tremendous emotional, mental, and financial strain on our family and I am relaunching this fundraiser to help cover the costs associated with memorial and burial arrangements.

We are deeply grateful for the support, prayers, kindness, and generosity we have received. I hope that by sharing our story, you will understand the circumstances that have led us to seek assistance. Any contribution, no matter the amount, is greatly appreciated. If you are unable to donate, we ask that you continue to keep our family in your prayers as we seek strength, healing, and justice.

The donations will also go towards helping with the children. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts for your support.
