Marianne lost her loving husband, Tom, of 35 years. Tom was a double amputee and lost his first leg five years ago. Marianne worked very hard through the years to support Tom through this difficult time of losing one leg after another. Marianne was stricken by Tom’s sudden death from a major heart attack on June 2, 2025. Sadly, Tom did not survive. Help us support Marianne during this difficult time. Unfortunately, due to Tom’s medical condition, he was not eligible for life insurance, which would typically help with costly funeral expenses.
Tom was a staple in our neighborhood. He would sit on the porch for hours every day in his wheelchair greeting everyone that walked or drove by. He made everyone feel welcome and would frequently offer treats to all of the doggies. If you are able to help with a donation of any size, we would greatly appreciate your help and support.
