So many wonderful people have reached out in regards to helping towards my moms life legacy as we all suffer the profound loss of my mom, Keri. To know her was to be loved by her. She was a woman with a heart as big as her infectious laugh, always the first to offer a helping hand and open her wallet to anyone in need and even if she didn't have it she would find a way. Her legacy without a doubt was her children and grandchildren, was always at the front page of everything she talked about.

Even after a serious car accident changed her life forever, her spirit remained unbroken. She continued to live life to the fullest and, most importantly, made sure to create cherished memories with us by taking her kids and grandkids to special events, shows, and attractions. These were the moments that defined our family's joy, and in my quiet moments, all I can think about is how much she would want us to continue living life this way, even without her physical presence.

This loss has left our family in a difficult financial position. With my younger brothers still finding their footing and without much financial security, and with the reality of being a single mother of three, I am unfortunately unable to carry this immense burden alone. The unexpected legal fees to settle her affairs, coupled with some funeral expenses, have left us overwhelmed.

In lieu of flowers, we kindly request that you consider a donation to this fundraiser. Your generous contributions will go directly toward:

Covering legal services to manage her estate.

Funding a beautiful celebration of life party after her funeral, where we can share stories and remember her vibrant spirit.

Establishing a fund to help pay for future family events, like going to shows and attractions. This will allow her kids and grandkids to continue making the same happy memories she loved creating with us, keeping her memory alive in the most joyful way possible.

Any donation, no matter the size, will help lift one weight off my shoulders and allow us to focus on grieving and celebrating the beautiful life she lived. If you can't contribute financially, we would be so grateful if you would share this fundraiser with others who knew and loved my mom.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support and for helping us continue the legacy of a woman who gave so much love to so many. Funeral arrangements will be announced soon.
