Help Bring My Mommy Home ; A Life of Love, Service & Sacrifice
It is with an absolutely broken heart that I share the passing of my mommy, a woman whose life was built on love, compassion, and selfless service to others. As we face this unimaginable loss, I’m asking for your help to honor her memory, lay her to rest, and most importantly ; bring her home to California, where she found peace, purpose, and her relationship with the Lord.

My mom dedicated her life to helping people ; especially elderly and disabled children. She had a calling to care for others and followed it with everything she had. She was the one everyone could count on, no matter how tired or busy she was. Her love didn’t stop with people ; she also had a deep love for animals and treated them with the same gentleness she showed to everyone she met.

If you knew my mommy, you know this: she never turned away someone in need. She was the kind of person who would give her last to help someone else. Her heart was wide open, and her hands were always working to lift others up.

As a mother, she was incredibly strong, determined, and brave. She faced every challenge head-on and gave her all to everything she did. She always went above and beyond, not just because she wanted to ;but because she believed in doing right by others. When my mother set her mind to something, she made it happen with grace and grit.

Even in her final days, her strength never wavered. She gave birth to her last child, and as a result of that sacrifice, developed congestive heart failure. Her body could no longer carry the weight of her giving heart — but she carried her baby into the world anyway. That is the kind of mother she was. That is the kind of woman she was.

Though she passed away far from her roots, California was where my mom found her faith and grew into the person God called her to be. It was her wish to return there — to the place where her spirit came alive. And now, I want to fulfill that wish for her.

We are raising funds to:
• Cover funeral and memorial costs
• Bring my mommy home to California to be laid to rest
• Support her children, who are now navigating life without her

If you can give anything — a donation, a prayer, or even just a share — it would mean everything to us. Let’s honor my mommy the way she lived: with love, faith, and kindness.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

— With love,
Her child and family
