Marianna went out of town to visit her daughter (her only relative) for the holidays and was gone for a few months. When she returned home, her locks were different and the curtains were wrong. She called 9-1-1, fearing someone was still inside.

The police surrounded the home and after making entry, they were able to take a suspect into custody. The man arrested and held by the police has an extensive criminal history with over 21 arrests and 7 felonies. He preys on the elderly and is known to commit fraud with their information.

Her home has been destroyed. ALL her furniture is gone, the lights and fixtures have been painted, windows have been painted over to block the ability to see inside, the car in the garage was driven and taken apart, washing machine broken and full of water, photos and keepsakes from her entire life/history with her late husband are gone, etc.

If you are able to help Marianna with even a few dollars, we would greatly appreciate the help. The immediate focus is to get her home cleaned and back to a livable state in addition restoring her car to a useable state to facilitate banking, bill paying, and food purchase.

This is a GoFundMe supports cleaning and repairs for both her car and home she, with her late husband, built and lived in for many decades. Please help if you can, even if it is sharing this information.
