As July 24th started, I set forth to celebrate my birthday, which quickly turned tragic.

I received a call that my beautiful sister Lisa (Nada) Algammaz had passed away in Kansas at the age of 37.

As friends and limited family know, I am on my own with the financial responsibility and need of getting my sister back to New York in order to have a proper viewing and burial.

Our father passed away 10 years ago and was buried in Jordan, and I know my sister would want to be laid to rest with our father. Doing right by her and my dad is at the forefront right now. I really need all the help I can get, and any little bit will help!
