My name is Jillian Stanchfield. I am starting this go fund me on behalf of my family. Particularly my nephews Christopher, and Justin. On Thursday March 12th my sister Tia Pupillo Small went to work and suffered from a brian aneurysm that took her life unexpectedly.

Tia had just celebrated her 55th birthday on February 7th. She worked with El Dorado County Office of Education with Child Development and Special Services for over 22 years. She moved to the Sonora area with her boys and began working with ATCA as a housing support specialist.

She was a loving daughter, sister, mother and friend and was the heart and soul of our family. She was a beautiful God fearing Christian woman that blessed the lives of everyone she new with great compassion, empathy, and grace.

Our family is in compete shock, and our hearts are shattered. Life for us will never be the same without her. The boys and our family are in dire need need of financial support for her end of life services, legal assistance fees, finalizing debt, and supporting Christopher and Justin's future well being through this time of grief.

We understand that current times are hard for so many right now, so any donation is so greatly appreciated. Every cent will count. Thank you in advance for you help. Please pray for our family.
