Hello, this is Jon, Carmen's son. Mommy was the most beautiful soul to ever walk this earth. She was so selfless, always helping others in need. We have always enjoyed hanging out at the zoo, park, pretty much everywhere. The one big problem Mom had was cigarettes; she would do 2 packs a week, which would turn into 4 packs every 5 days. Last year, Mom was diagnosed with lung cancer, and it spread so quickly. She started losing weight and having more dizzy spells.

Tuesday, while I was at work, Mom was found barely breathing by the nurses, so they took her to hospice. Wednesday night, after we left visiting her, I got a call that Mommy had passed away. It was the single worst day of our lives.

I don't usually do this, but I am asking for help to be able to cover the costs for my mother's funeral. The cost is way more than I could afford, so please, can you lend a helping hand? funds will be used to cover the cost of services for my mother.
