Honoring the Life and Memory of Colin Elrod

Donation protected
Hi, this is Lovelyn Patangui. My cousin/sister Cheryl Elrod has lost her lifetime partner Colin Elrod on November 24th, right after Thanksgiving. They've been married since Xmas Eve of December 2010. They've been together for 18 years. Any donations during these hard times will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

This is from Cheryl: 

Colin had a cardiac arrest in the parking lot of the ER on 11/06. 

Having not left the hospital yet, he arrested again on 11/22 & the rapid response team rushed in to save him.

The following day, he had another event on 11/23 in ICU, & the final one on 11/24

He was a fighter & held on until 11/24.  

In his last days, he was in a lot of pain. It was extremely hard to see him go, but he is finally without pain & at peace now. 

It is hard to express just how much your loving support means to me during the most difficult time in my life. Losing my beloved has been unbelievably hard.

Thank you,

Cheryl Garces Elrod
