Dear friends and family,

I'm organizing a fundraiser on behalf of the Beaver family.

Mark Beaver has worked for my company for almost 8 years.  Mark has a big heart who genuinely cares about people.  Everyone who meets him instantly loves him.  The Beaver family are considered like family to us.  Recently Mark and his wife Jeanet received the exciting news of expecting a new addition to their current family of five.   Over the past 9 months everyone who knows Mark would often hear him talking about the exciting news.  Mark has always been a wonderful father who loved his wife and kids.  

Today we received the heartbreaking tragic news that his beautiful wife Jeanet passed away while giving birth to their new baby boy Mark Jr.       

With all of the emotional pain and stress that a sudden passing of a loved one  brings, it also brings tremendous financial burdens. 
We are trying to raise money for Mark and their children to help with any unexpected costs they will incur and to help wherever needed.
As a community we want to ease any stress on the family caused by funeral arrangements and other ongoing expenses incurred while Mark raises his four children by himself.   

It is in these times of loss and sadness when you see people coming together to help one another make it through, to support the people we care for.
We are thankful for any support you may be able to provide.

We also encourage everyone to keep Mark and his beautiful kids in your thoughts and prayers.
