Help Support Mindy During Her Loss

Donation protected
You created all this happiness with us, yet you couldn't ever be truly happy inside.
You created all this love with us, yet you couldn't feel the unconditional love I gave you daily.
I have so many words, yet I can't formulate them.
I hate mental illness! I hate the selfishness of this all.
You are not a selfish man, yet the illness made you do the most selfish act ever!
I am not ready to say goodbye. Not like this!!
I hope you're at peace.

This was written by my sister Mindy, who this GoFundMe is for. Her husband Ken was truly a terrific guy, who would, as the saying goes, give his shirt off his back. Ken unfortunately struggled with mental illness and ultimately it led him to take his own life. My sister now finds herself not only dealing with his passing, but she is still picking up the pieces from his brother who also took his own life just over a year and a half ago and his mom, who passed away 9 months ago, while trying to work and keep her house running for her and my nephew. Any help would be appreciated and if you are not in a position to help, please just pray over them.
