Help Melvin Lee's family after unexpected death

Donation protected
My name is Katie Lee and my husband, Mel, passed away unexpectedly this week. Monday evening my doorbell rang and there was a police officer standing at the door with the most horrific words I have ever heard in my life! Mel was out of town for work and passed in his hotel room. He was only supposed to be gone for 3 days!!! NOT forever! This abrupt news has devastated our family, friends, coworkers and Marine brotherhood who loved him dearly. He was my personal rock, protector, best friend, personal entertainer and provider! We have 6 kids that he lived for!!!  Asking for help is an incredibly hard thing for me to do and frankly, embarassing. Unfortunately the expenses that come with passing away, the bills and unforseen expenses won't  just stop because I can't afford them.  Any kind of donation at all would help us get through this next uncertain chapter. We are also desperately in need of prayer right now.  Please lift us up and pray for peace, healing and strength to go forward in this life without him! We had plans for this weekend...You just never know when you won't have a tomorrow. If I knew Sunday was the last time I would've ever seen Mel there's so much I would do differently. Even though we are heartbroken and hurting right now We do know this is all part of God's perfect plan. Thank you to the friend that made me do this, the people that are praying for us and encouraging us, thank you for txt messages and voicemails. I apologize for not responding to all of them yet. It's just hard. I am SO touched by how many loved my Mel. Thank you!!!!!
