On Sunday November 30th, our loving mother was called home to her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, after a fairly short battle with leukemia.

While her passing has been expected for weeks, it's fair to say that we are not prepared for the financial burdens that come with losing a loved one.

A majority of our mother’s funeral arrangements are covered. However, we still face outstanding personal expenses due to missed time from work and travel that we simple can't afford at this time.

Both my brother Aron, and I have taken extended time from work over the past few weeks to ensure our mother was given proper care, and to see to it that she was comfortable and surrounded by family during her passing.

For those of you who have been through this, you know there are a lot of unforeseen expenses, which has left us having to take out a loan to help with these costs.

We know that money is tight for a lot of us right now, especially during the holiday season. So, we completely understand if you're unable to donate at this time. However, any donations to help us through this difficult time, would be greatly appreciated.
