Help Us Give Our Mother the Farewell She Deserves.

Our mother, Marcia , came to visit us so she could spend quality time with her grandchildren—laughing, sharing stories, and making new memories. What should have been a joyful time quickly turned into heartbreak when she was diagnosed with end-stage pancreatic cancer.

She has no insurance and no funds to cover what lies ahead. This diagnosis has not only shaken us emotionally, but has also placed us in the overwhelming position of preparing for her funeral while trying to cherish the precious time we have left with her.

Our mother is more than her illness—she is a loving, selfless woman who has always put others before herself. She is a storyteller, a caretaker, a shoulder to cry on, and the heart of our family. Her strength, even now, humbles us.

We want to give her a final farewell filled with dignity and love, a service that honors her life and the countless lives she’s touched. Any gift—big or small—will help ease this burden and allow us to focus on what matters most: holding her hand and being by her side in these final days.

From our family to yours, thank you for your generosity, compassion, and prayers.
