It Takes a Village: Supporting Gladys Oxner

Thank you to everyone who has shown love and support to Gladys Oxner, who lost her beloved husband, Waymond, of 30+years in April.

The village truly showed up during the initial days of grief, offering prayers, presence, and care. But as time passes and life resumes for many of us, those who are grieving continue to carry the weight of loss—emotionally, spiritually, and often financially.

Gladys is currently waiting on the processing of Waymond’s Social Security benefits and could use a little help from the village—both near and far—as she navigates this transition.

If you are able, any amount—large or small—is deeply appreciated. Your support will help ease the burden and remind her that she is not alone.

Thank you for being part of the village.
