️ Help Us Bring Candace Home and Support Her Five Children

On July 25, our family’s world changed forever.

Our beloved Candace Collins, just 37 years old, was tragically taken from us in a devastating expressway accident after being struck and run over by multiple vehicles. Her death was sudden and unimaginable. One moment, Candace was here, and now her five children and everyone who loved her are left trying to understand how to move forward without her.

Candace was not just a loved one. She was a mother. She was the person her five children depended on for love, guidance, comfort, and support. Now, they are being forced to face a future without their mother, and our family is doing everything we can to make sure they are not left without the resources they need.

One of Candace’s children has autism and requires additional care, support, and financial resources. Losing a mother is already an unimaginable burden for a child, and we want to help provide stability and support for her children during the difficult days, months, and years ahead.

Sadly, we were not prepared for this loss. Candace did not have life insurance or funeral insurance, leaving our family with the heartbreaking responsibility of trying to raise the money needed to give her the proper homegoing service she deserves.

We are asking for help—not only to lay Candace to rest with dignity, but to help protect and support the five children she leaves behind.

Any donation, no matter how small, can make a difference. If you are able to give, your contribution will help with Candace’s funeral and final expenses and provide financial support for her children, including the additional needs of her child with autism.

And if you cannot donate, please share this fundraiser. A share could reach someone who can help. A prayer could give our family strength. A kind word could mean more than you know.

There are no words that can truly explain what it feels like to lose Candace this way. 37 years was not enough. Her children deserved more time with their mother. Our family deserved more time with her.

We are simply asking our community to stand with us during one of the hardest moments of our lives.

Please help us give Candace the farewell she deserves and help us make sure her five children know that they are surrounded by love and support.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who gives, shares, prays, or keeps Candace and her children in your thoughts.

️ Rest peacefully, Candace. Your life mattered. Your children matter. Your memory will live on through everyone who loved you. ❤️
