Veronica Lee Hardin passed away on October 14th, surrounded by her family.

Ronnie, as most knew her, was a brilliantly strong woman who had been battling failing health for quite some time.

I, Racine, had a firecracker of a Mom. Fiercely loving and equally as protective.

For those who knew her, you probably can easily think of her eccentric style and her adoration of giraffes.

We plan to have some sort of end-of-life ceremony. No funeral at the direct request of my Mom.

That being said, these things cost money.

I figured why not see if anyone wanted to help with some of that.

Please do not feel obligated!

Thank you so much.
