Help a Mother Battling Stage IV Cancer Lay Her Son to Rest

Hello, my name is Phyllis.
I never imagined I would be writing something like this.

On September 25th, my beloved son, Dalwin “Fred” Jett, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly. He was only 53 and meant the world to everyone who knew him — a loving son, brother, father, and friend, full of kindness and life.

At the same time, I am facing my own health battle: I’ve been diagnosed with stage IV cancer. Treatment and living with this illness have taken a toll — physically, emotionally, and financially.

Losing my son while fighting for my own life is unimaginable pain. I want to give him the peaceful farewell and memorial he deserves, but the costs are overwhelming while I’m struggling with medical bills and daily expenses.

If you are able, any amount you give will go directly toward funeral and memorial expenses, helping us celebrate Fred’s life with love and dignity. If you can’t donate, sharing this page would mean the world to us.

Thank you for reading, for caring, and for helping during the hardest chapter of my life.

With love and gratitude,
Phyllis
(Mom of Fred)
