Funeral for Mom~ Gloria Petito

May 28,1958 ~ August 29,2020

We are raising money for funeral cost. As everyone knows this is quite expensive. We are hoping to do a full service for our mom as she deserves to be honored and celebrated. Unfortunately she did not have any life insurance or anything set up for this. Of course we thought we had a lot more time with her. 

Just a few weeks ago she was helping me move into my home and playing with my son with no signs of any medical issues and yesterday she passed away unexpectedly. We found out today she passed away from a brain aneurysm. We can not wrap our heads around this, it is the most devastating news, and our family is aching. 

Our mom truly had the biggest and purest heart. She loved with everything she had.  Her family was her world, near and far. She was the most amazing grandmother and her grandkids already miss her sooo much.  I remember searching for Mother's Day cards one year and it was impossible to pick one out because you can put all them together and they still do not come close to expressing how special our Mom was. We always knew no matter what our mom would always be there, to offer a helping hand or just simply to be there. She was the most selfless person and would give the shirt off her back or her last penny to anyone who needed it. Even people she didn't know - she always tried to help. 

We are so blessed to have family and friends reaching out at the beyond difficult time and we can't Thank you all enough. If anyone deserves the outpouring of love it was  our mom. 

If anyone is able to assist with funeral cost, our family would truly appreciate it. 
We will be making the arrangements in the next few days and are hoping to have services if possible by the weekend. Of course we will keep everyone posted.
