Anna Bear Kalelest

I am Jen Nickel, Anna’s “sister of choice”, her friend and her cousin. On behalf of her sons, her parents and her family, I’ve been given permission to fund raise for transition expenses for her sons, and expenses related to going through her home, cleaning it and packing it up. All of which needs to be done rather quickly.

Anna, aged 44, passed suddenly after an intense battle with sepsis after an infected kidney stone. She received excellent care & we are forever grateful for the support the last few weeks. Anna leaves behind 2 teenage sons, whose father also died several years ago. This is an unfathomable situation for both the boys, and all of us who loved Anna so.

The next few weeks will also be very difficult, and fund raising will make it less difficult for the family. Please message if you’re not comfortable with go fund me as we have a secondary e-transfer also available.

*all funds will be accounted for by a group of family members
