Our dearest friends and family,

 

 As you are all aware, our beloved mother Denise Anne Labella Paul has unfortunately been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer which has been confirmed to be incurable.  Our mother, who has always been the matriarch and the rock of our tight knit family, has been holding on strong. Her physical state has been drastically declining.  We have, financially, invested into our mother’s health, without hesitation, due to the tremendous hope that we all had that our loving mother would survive this horrific fight for her life.  Her health is weakening, and sadly, time is not on our side. 

During these hectic, several months; our mother has endured multiple procedures that were suggested by medical professionals to treat the unpredictably, growing cancer inside her body.  As many would for their own parent, we handled the expensive costs for the recommended scans and medications that came directly out of our own pockets because health insurance did not cover these treatments.

Our mother, whom always put her children first and is beyond selfless, deserves a proper goodbye.  She has been the foundation of our family. Though, she is battling the most difficult journey of her life, she has never uttered a single word of complaint.  She is our warrior, our hero, our angel.

We are asking, you all, as our friends and family to bless us with donations towards our dear mother’s funeral expense. It devastates us to even think, of the undeniable truth, that this heartbreaking event is inevitable. Any contribution that you can provide would truly be valued. We, thank you, graciously in advance, for your compassion and consideration. 

Words could never accurately express our gratitude.
