Hello, I am Marcie Hassen the mother of Laura Mattison. My daughter’s husband lost his life to depression and alcohol at the hands of suicide. He not only took his own life, but it was also done in the presence of our daughter and while the children were within their home. Beyond trying to process the grief we are grappling with the costs of funeral arrangements, moving and therapy. We loved Brad very much as did many. He was a fun-loving, jovial and kind person that unfortunately had deep pain we were not all fully aware of. He was a supportive father and loving husband. We are saddened by this turn of events and are looking to go on further to channel this grief in a positive way anyway we can. Thank you in advance for your monetary offering, love and support. Please keep our family in your hearts, thoughts and prayers. Thank you.
