My good friend Stephanie Netherland has just lost her mother, Connie, to congestive heart failure after a long stay at Our Lady of the Lake in Baton Rouge.

She was transported on Nov 5 and never returned home. She passed away on November 29 peacefully with her daughter by her side.

Her family didn't have any burial insurance, so they decided that cremation is the most affordable way to go. Seale Funeral Home is handling the arrangements.

The total cost is $1500 for the urn and cremation. We are humbly asking for any donations to help offset the cost for the Netherland family.

Thanks for your assistance.
