Beloved Fund for Myrna Garcia & Family

Donation protected
Tragedy struck the sacred home of beloved community leader, mentor and champion of the Georgia Hispanic Community, Myrna Garcia-Clemmons, on May 22nd in Canton, Georgia. She and her daughter, Victoria Clemmons, were both shot protecting the life of Victoria's newborn baby Ezra who had just been successfully released from critical care in the hospital a mere 21 days ago. Sadly, Victoria Clemmons, the mother of 2 children, 10-year-old Antonio and three month old Ezra, was fatally shot on site. Presently, Myrna is the hospital fighting for her life and under close observation and care, and we need your miraculous prayers for her recovery.
 
In the midst of it all, the children and family are united and being carried on by Germaine Mitchell, Myrna's eldest daughter and Victoria's sister, who now bears the sole responsibility of Victoria's two children. Life has drastically changed overnight and the mother of one, now finds herself responsible for 3 and contemplating tough personal and financial decisions to support this new reality.
 
We need the support of Myrna and Victoria's beloved community to help with a myriad of new expenses that are stretching the family funds. The Go Fund me will support funeral expenses for Victoria, care expenses for the children which include and are not limited to mental health, education and daily care for the children.
 
Germaine and the family will now be caring for newborn baby Ezra, and Antonio is now out of school for the summer- babysitting and constant care will take Germaine away from work. Tough decisions are ahead about how to balance both and we want the family to have a period of grace to process and not think about financial burdens.
 
We are asking our beloved community to generously support Myrna's grand-kids, Germaine and family today and in the days ahead. Myrna is the sole supporter for her daughter Victoria, and her two grandchildren. If ever the time was needed to support Myrna and Victoria, the time is now. Please share your love offering for Myrna as she has so selflessly given to our community for so long.
 
Thank you for your donations & keep the prayers for Myrna and her entire family close to your heart. This message has been approved by Germaine Mitchell & Myrna's immediate family including Myrna's remaining children Jose Enrique Rivera and Bella Garcia.
 
We pray for the repose of the soul of Victoria, and believe in the fighting spirit Myrna Clemmons " A Mama & Mentor to Many " embodies. We pray for resiliency and strength for her beloved grandchildren and family during this time.
 
 
God Bless, Be Generous & Thank You in Advance.
