Help Mattox's with Funeral and Rebuilding Home
Donation protected
Hi my name is Shavonda Guilford, and I am looking for support to help my family fund a home going for my Uncle Roy Mattox Jr. and to rebuild my Grandfather Roy Mattox's home. The past few years have been very difficult for my Grandfather Roy Mattox Sr., beginning with the loss of his wife Gladys Mattox from cancer in 2019.
Unfortunately on November 4, 2023, he awoke to a huge fire in his home of over 25 years, which claimed the life of his son. His son Roy Jr, was a caring and loving man and tragically passed in the fire. Due to his health and him being a person with Downs Syndrome, it was very difficult to get and maintain life insurance.
We are asking for donations to cover Roy Jr.'s funeral expenses, as well as to rebuild my grandfathers home. Due to the fire, my grandfather, his caretaker, Tosehiba White, and my uncle Ulysses are now homeless. As a retired military veteran, Roy Sr. already had a very limited income, and now he lost everything he owned, other than the clothes he was wearing when he escaped the fire.
Please find it in your heart to help my grandfather Roy Sr. rebuild his home. My grandfather is a proud military veteran, who dedicated his life to his country and to his family, and now he needs your support. All funds will be used to provide a funeral for Roy Jr. and to support Roy Sr. in putting his life back together after this tragedy. Please keep my family in your prayers, and any and all support is greatly appreciated.
