On Monday, August 6, 2018, our dear friend Denise Sparks lost her battle with cancer.  Denise was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer just a few short months ago and has been in the hospital most of that time. She was a loving mother, wife, friend, and the sole provider for their family. Denise's husband, Mark, left the work force over 20 years ago to care full time for their autistic son, Tyler. The loss of Denise is not only emotionally devastating to this family but financially devastating as well due to the sudden and unexpected loss of their only source of income. As close friends of the family, we have started this GoFundMe page in an effort to help Mark and his family recover from their loss without the burden of worrying about living expenses and give them some time to mourn without the pressure of monetary worries. Please help us in our efforts by donating whatever you can. Your generosity is much appreciated!
