For Joseph’s headstone❤️

Hello, my name is Hannah Payne sister to Joseph Payne. Our story is long and sad. It would take awhile for people to truly understand how we got here. The truth is, On July 10th 2023 my little 12 year old brother Joseph, locked himself in my mother’s bathroom looked himself in the mirror and made a decision he never came back from. He sh0t himself in the head and passed away two days later, July 12th at 12:49am. Our lives will never ever be the same.

Growing up financially our parents gave us everything they could but they struggled a lot and now it’s a deeper struggle then it has ever been. My dad can’t work anymore due to a terrible accident a few years ago where a tractor trailer hit him on the highway. My mom who used to be a stay at home mom now works and provides for the family in what ways she can. I said that to say none of us can afford a headstone for our baby. It has been an excruciating 6 months and my heart aches for our baby. Even if you just spread the word it means the whole world to us. Please help us get him a headstone and the recognition he deserves. I also wanted to add that the starting cost should be around 2,000 for the one we want plus all other fees and personalizing the front and back. I set the goal pretty high just to make sure everything gets covered but once we have enough I will take the fund down. I love you guys❤️

Thank you so much for reading and taking the time to care. God bless
