Dear friends of Melissa Crouse,

 

My name is Melanie Swan; I am Melissa’s sister and am organizing this GoFundMe on her behalf. As many of you know, Missy lost everything when her house rapidly burned to the ground during Hurricane Ian on September 28th; all of her clothes, furniture, appliances, car, musical instruments, and priceless keepsakes that can never be replaced. The picture above shows the extent of the devastation. Missy was lucky to escape the fire with only the clothes on her back, her dog, and some burns on her hands. Many have asked how they can help, and after talking with Missy and her family, it was decided that a GoFundMe would be beneficial in helping her to rebuild her life and replace all that she’s lost. I have witnessed Missy overcoming multiple weighty challenges over the years using her sheer grit, determination, and fierce independence. Although these qualities will help her face this challenge, overcoming it will require significantly more. Thank you in advance for your help, support, and sharing of this message.

 

Sincerely,

 

Melanie
