In Memory of Crissy: Help Support Her Children

Donation protected
Crissy Ustasiewski, 44, was a devoted single mother to ten wonderful children, known for her unwavering love and support for her family. On Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025, Crissy tragically and unexpectedly passed away, leaving her children heartbroken and without their beloved mother. Due to unforeseen circumstances, her children now face this devastating loss without a safety net—no mother, and no stable source of support. We are humbly asking for help to raise funds so they can have a chance at stability during this incredibly difficult time. They are navigating this heartbreak without financial resources, and with the looming threat of losing their home. In addition to their emotional pain, the cost of funeral expenses has become another heavy burden on the family. As a single mother, Crissy always put her children first, giving everything she had to make sure they were loved and cared for. She was incredibly selfless—always giving, even when she had little, and never asking for anything in return. Now, in the wake of her passing, it’s our turn to give back. The support of the community is needed more than ever to help ensure her children are safe, supported, and able to begin healing from this unimaginable loss.
