Hello, I am raising funds to help my dad and my family pay for funeral costs for my mom, who was taken from us in a brutal murder.

They didn't have much money, but they didn't need much. My parents lived a simple life full of love. No one could have imagined that she would be taken from us so soon.

My dad is still trying to come to grips with the fact that the love of his life, it would have been 44 years of marriage this year, is gone. Any help would be much appreciated as we try to deal with this unimaginable circumstance.
