Help Judy Warren Through Loss and Cancer

I'm Amber Parkerson-Mendel, and I am asking for support for my Aunt Judy.

My Aunt Judy Warren has been through an unimaginable few weeks, and now she needs the support of her family and friends more than ever.

Just last month, Aunt Judy was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer. Despite the terrifying news, Judy—always the fighter—was ready to take on this battle with the strength we all know she has. She had the unwavering support of her son Richard and her beloved husband of over 30 years, Uncle Bruce, along with all of us who cherish them deeply.

But life took a heartbreaking turn. Uncle Bruce, who was scheduled for open-heart surgery on Friday, October 11th, didn't make it through. His surgical team worked tirelessly for over 10 hours, trying everything they could to save him, but he passed away during the procedure. The loss was devastating. Judy and Bruce were inseparable—soulmates in every sense. They spent every moment together, building a life of love and support that we all admired. Now, without him, Judy is left with an emptiness that words can't begin to describe.

In the midst of grieving the love of her life, Judy is still determined to fight her cancer. Her resilience has been nothing short of inspiring. But with Bruce gone and expenses piling up, the weight on her shoulders is overwhelming.

Judy and Bruce lived on a fixed income, and while there is life insurance, those funds will take time to access. Right now, Richard and the rest of our family are doing everything we can to cover her immediate needs, but there are significant burial costs, cancer treatments, and the need to provide Judy with organic, nutritious food to help her stay strong during this fight.

We're asking for your help. If you've ever known Judy or Bruce, you know how much they've given to others over the years. Now it's time for us to give back. Any amount, no matter how small, will make a difference as Judy navigates through this unimaginable loss and the battle for her health.

Thank you for your love, your support, and your generosity during this tragic time.
