*** Update:
WE DID IT! THANK YOU EVERYONE! Just wanted to update everyone and say thank you so much for all of your donations. All funeral costs and expenses have been covered and some! Anything extra Brian has decided to use towards helping him with his monthly bills and expenses. Anything donated going forward would be going to help him financially. If you'd like to do anything for the children it will not be received through donations (GOFundMe etc) so feel free to contact them separately if those are your intentions. Thank you guys so much for everything! We are extremely grateful for your love, kindness and generosity during this devastating time.
Love you all! X0 - Crystal
Hi! Josy’s kids here! We are devastated beyond words to be honest. Don’t really know what to say. I know my mom would want us to celebrate her in colorful clothes and worhsip music! She loved God and people with all her heart! She would give you her last dollar or the shirt off her back. She was the most loving giving person we knew! If you knew her you know!
She been through so much these past few years! Every Dr and nurse knew her at the hospital! The Dr himself didn’t expect this and cried himself over her loss.
Brian our step dad and her husband has been left alone and heartbroken over this. They went into the hospital for stomach pain and he left alone. He has been the most incredible husband to our mom. He has been by her side every step of the way. Even after experiencing a life threatening heart attack himself just 2 years ago!
Anything will help and be appreciated. If you cannot help financially please pray for our family! Our mom was only 53 years young. She was diagnosed with Chiari malformation a few years ago and we believe it’s also linked to EDS. We just want to find answers and hopefully be able to bring awareness to her rare condition and help others going through the same. I know it’s what our mom would’ve wanted!
All money on GoFundMe is going to Brian 100% if you wish to send any of her children a monetary gift you can do that separately. Thank you!
Thank you guys for your love and kindness! We are forever grateful for everything!
God bless you all!
