<div>With immeasurable heartbreak, we announce the passing of Jacqueline Noella Barnabe, who fought not only pancreatic cancer, but also dementia and a brain aneurysm. Despite facing multiple devastating medical battles, she remained strong, loving, and present for her family for as long as she could.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Jacqueline passed far too early — before her own mother, father, siblings and grandmother:
</div>
<div>Mother: Jean Barnabe
</div>
<div>Father: Peter Barnabe
</div>
<div>Brothers: Charles and Roger Barnabe
</div>
<div>Grandmother: Irene Meyer
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>She leaves behind her three sons:
</div>
<div> Steven Beattie
</div>
<div> Brandon 
</div>
<div> Nick
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And her first and only grandchild, Hunter Lynn, who turns two on November 27th. Jacquelin loved Hunter deeply; even as her illnesses progressed, her face always lit up when she heard her granddaughter’s name.
</div>
<div><br />

<div>A Son Carrying Everything While Grieving
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>When Jacquelin took her final breath, Steven Beattie was right by her side. He held her hand, comforted her, and made sure she was not alone.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now, while grieving the loss of his mother, Steven is carrying every responsibility — funeral arrangements, documents, transportation, and supporting his brothers. To give Jacqueline the dignity she deserves, he has even had to take out a loan to cover the costs.

<div>Why We Are Asking for Help?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This GoFundMe is to support Steven, Brandon, Nick, and little Hunter Lynn with:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Funeral and burial expenses
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Loan payments Steven took out
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>After-life arrangements
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Transportation and documentation costs
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any remaining final expenses
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Losing a mother is painful enough — no family should also face crushing financial strain on top of grief.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation, no matter the amount, helps lift a weight off Steven’s shoulders and allows this family to focus on healing.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser helps more than you know.

</div>
<div>Thank you for taking the time to read Jacqueline’s story.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping her sons through the hardest moment of their lives.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And thank you for honouring the memory of Jacqueline Noella Barnabe — a woman who fought fiercely through cancer, dementia, and a brain aneurysm and loved her family with everything she had.
