Our dear friend Ann Marie is currently facing one of the hardest battles of her life: late-stage cancer. Through it all, she’s remained strong (stubborn), kind, and full of love—exactly the person we’ve always known her to be.

Now, she needs us.

As anyone who’s walked this road knows, the emotional toll of cancer is only part of the story. The financial burden—from treatments to medications to basic living expenses—adds stress at a time when healing and peace should be the focus. Despite insurance, the costs are piling up. It’s more than any family should have to carry.

She’s currently at home, receiving hospice care, surrounded by her loving family.

Her husband (Richie) and daughter (Kristy) have stepped away from work to care for her full-time so they can spend these precious days together. While they wouldn’t trade this time for anything, it has left them in a difficult financial situation.

We’re raising funds to help cover:

Daily hospice care (currently $400/day)

Accumulated medical bills

Prescriptions and treatments

Basic living expenses and caregiving support

Any contribution, no matter how small, would mean the world to them—and help ease the burden during this incredibly painful and sacred chapter. If you’re unable to give right now, sharing this page is just as meaningful.

Let’s show Ann Marie and her family that they’re not alone. She has a community of people who love her and are standing beside her, every step of the way.

With deep gratitude,

Beau Faulkner (and friends/family in behalf of Ann Marie)
