Help Laura with Funeral Costs and Future Financial Stability

Donation protected
Hello. I am Jill Ringer and I am raising money for my Niece, Laura McNally to help her gain financial stability for her future. Fourteen months ago Laura's mother, my only sister, Suzanne McNally, had a life-debilitating stroke and was in the Stroke Trauma ward in Pittsburgh, Pa for months. The last nine months Suzanne fought to regain her independence in order to go home to her home in Martinsburg, but she lost her battle yesterday and passed away from stroke & meningitis complications . In addition, Laura also tragically lost her Father just eight months ago from years of ongoing medical difficulties.

Laura is their only daughter and at 32 years old has found herself with no parents or siblings. What makes this situation even more difficult is that Steve, her father, had financially prepared for years for such a situation as this, and had accumulated over $250,000 worth of security investments for Suzanne & Laura. Well after Steve passed away in March of 2025, the convalescent home that was keeping Suzanne invaded this investment account & took every cent of Steve's nest egg that he saved for Laura & Suzanne's security, leaving them with nothing. The comfort of knowing their was a financial cushion was taken from them. And now that Laura's Mother is gone, she has no inheritance and monetary security.

So my wish as her Aunt is for her burden to be lifted a bit with being able to give her some financial assistance towards her Mother's funeral costs and most importantly, her financial future. Laura has been through so much, the loss of both of her parents, and now financial devastation, with losing all the money her parents saved. Please consider helping this family, and help replace a portion of what Laura has lost in the last 14 months.

Since Suzanne spent over a decade helping others less fortunate than herself when she was healthy, serving the Blair County Salvation Army,
any donation, no matter the amount, is deeply appreciated. If you’re unable to give, please consider sharing this page and keeping the family in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you for your kindness, love, and support during this incredibly difficult time.
