My name is Lynda Maniscalco and I am hoping to raise at least 2,550 for my niece April Strout to assist in meeting the cost of providing a simple burial for her father Bobby Strout.

On Sunday September 6, Bobby passed away suddenly, after a brief but very serious illness. April, has been caring for her father since the tragic and sudden death of her mother, Jeannie Taylor Strout, almost 14 years ago to the day… April has no siblings and Bobby’s surviving siblings are older and on fixed incomes. Bobby and April’s combined medical bills over the last few years unfortunately resulted in the depletion of their savings and April is not able to carry any additional debt. Bobby’s life insurance, social security benefit and the donations collected as of today, in the amount of $3,550, falls far short of covering the expenses of a simple burial plan which will total approximately $5,000. If you feel led to donate, April and I would be so deeply grateful…

You can also help by sharing this page, but most of all, please pray for April, she will need the support of all of more than ever…

I will keep you all updated as to the progress and the details of the upcoming Memorial Service as soon as possible…

Thank you to you all for your love and kindness during this incredibly difficult time, you are all so so dear to us..
