My beautiful mom passed away on January 14th, 2026. She was a woman of deep faith who always showed kindness and love to everyone she met. She taught her children, grandchildren, and even her great-grandchildren about faith in the Lord, and her devotion was an inspiration to all of us. With her last breaths, she cried out, "I want to go home to Jesus." I have never known anyone more ready to meet Him.

She passed away from sepsis and respiratory failure. While she had some burial insurance, there is still a shortfall before we can lay her to rest. My heart breaks that we can't have a service until the bill is paid in full. The funds raised will go directly toward funeral costs and services, and donations can go straight to the funeral home or to me to help cover these expenses.

I am heartbroken and don't know where else to turn. Any support you can offer, whether through a donation or by sharing this fundraiser, would mean the world to our family. Thank you for helping us honor my mother's memory and give her the service she deserves.
