Our hearts are shattered. My cousin's daughter, Nikeria Freeman, passed away, and our family is not prepared for what comes next. Nikeria was a loving mother with a big heart. She was a beautiful woman—strong, full of life, and always willing to help others, even when she had little to give. She left behind three beautiful children, Linda (7) and King (6), who loved her deeply and now must face life without their mother.

She was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and unfortunately did not survive. She did not have life insurance, and the cost of her funeral is more than our family can carry alone. We are asking for your help to give Nikeria the dignified homegoing she deserves, and also for support for her children's living expenses. This is truly a heartbreaking time for the Freeman family. We want to send Nikeria off with a beautiful ceremony.

Any amount helps. Whether it is $5, $20, or more, every single gift brings us closer to laying her to rest with the love and respect she earned in this life. If you cannot give, please share this post. A share costs nothing but can reach someone who is able to help. To everyone who has already reached out, prayed for us, or simply said her name—thank you. The love you have shown our family has meant more than words can say. We feel it. We see it. And we are grateful.

With a broken but grateful heart, The Freeman Family
