Help Ease Diane's Financial Burden After Mike's Passing

Donation protected
In the early hours of July 2nd, Diane Skiba lost her partner of 23 years, Mike Markus, the love of her life, her best friend, and her spouse for all intents and purposes. Mike was hospitalized in early May, and after more than a month in the hospital, he came home with hospice care. He passed away at home after a short, but very hard fought battle with an out-of-the-blue, multiple diagnosis/multi system illness.

Diane has been blindsided by this sudden loss. While grieving, she is doing her very best to navigate funeral planning and costs, as well as all of the expenses that Diane will now be managing on one income.

If you are able to donate anything to help relieve some of the financial burden and stress while Diane mourns a loss that no one should have to experience, it would be greatly appreciated, and would help give her the time to grieve, heal, and find a new normal. Anything helps.
