Our mother, Halida Halilovic, passed away on September 27th, 2025 and with her, a light in our lives went out. She was more than just a mom to us. She was our safe place, our biggest supporter, and the one person who loved without conditions no matter what life threw at us.

She gave everything she had to her family, always putting others before herself. She worked hard, loved deeply, and carried strength and grace through every hardship she faced. Even in her hardest days, she showed up for us and now, it’s our turn to show up for her.

As much as we’d like to focus on grieving and honoring her memory, we’re also faced with the unexpected and overwhelming costs of her funeral and final arrangements. We were not financially prepared for this, and it's difficult to ask for help.

We’re trying to raise to cover:

* Funeral services

* Transportation and logistics

* Memorial costs

* Any remaining final expenses

Every dollar, every share, and every kind word means the world to us. Even if you can’t donate, just sharing this helps more than you know.

All I want is to give my mother the goodbye she deserves something peaceful, something beautiful, something that reflects the love she gave us every day of her life.

Thank you for reading, for caring, and for holding space for us in this time of heartbreak.

Naša majka, Halilović, preminula je 27. septembra 2025. godine i s njom se ugasilo svjetlo u našim životima. Ona je za nas bila više od obične majke. Bila je naše sigurno mjesto, naša najveća podrška i jedina osoba koja je voljela bezuvjetno, bez obzira na to šta nam je život donio. 

Sve što je imala dala je svojoj porodici, uvijek stavljajući druge ispred sebe. Naporno je radila, duboko voljela i nosila snagu i milost kroz svaku teškoću s kojom se suočavala. Čak i u svojim najtežim danima, pojavljivala se za nas, a sada je naš red da se pojavimo za nju. 

 Koliko god bismo željeli da se fokusiramo na tugovanje i odavanje počasti njenom sjećanju, suočeni smo i s neočekivanim i ogromnim troškovima njene sahrane i konačnih aranžmana. Nismo bili finansijski spremni za ovo i teško je tražiti pomoć. 

 Pokušavamo prikupiti 6.000 dolara za pokrivanje: 

 * Pogrebnih usluga 

* Prijevoza i logistike 

* Troškova komemoracije 

* Svih preostalih konačnih troškova Svaki dolar, svaka dionica i svaka lijepa riječ nam znače cijeli svijet. Čak i ako ne možete donirati, samo dijeljenje ovoga pomaže više nego što mislite. 

 Sve što želim je da svojoj majci dam oproštaj koji zaslužuje, nešto mirno, nešto lijepo, nešto što odražava ljubav koju nam je pružala svaki dan svog života. Hvala vam što čitate, što brinete i što nam dajete prostora u ovom trenutku slomljenog srca.
