On Monday, September 30th, my beautiful friend, Jenn, suffered a medical emergency. Despite emergency aid, Jenn unexpectedly passed away. Jenn's husband, Dave, and her 15-year-old son, TJ, are now navigating the unimaginable. They are grieving the loss of their most important person and are trying to fund the unexpected costs associated with this tragic event.

On top of the financial burdens that come with losing a loved one, Jenn provided the main income for the family. Losing Jenn now means difficulty keeping up with the day-to-day finances that every family has. Jenn did so much for their family from working to helping Dave and doing all of the mom things that a mom does for TJ. The least we can do is help remove some of the load by assisting them financially.

As a close friend of Jenn's (she was the Matron-of-honor in my wedding, a memory I will hold dear to my heart forever) and like so many, completely heart broken by her sudden passing, I want to do what I can to help the Sullivan family cover the costs of funeral services and maybe even provide a cushion for other expenses. They deserve to allow themselves time to mourn and heal during this overwhelmingly difficult time without the added stress of financial worry.

Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference to this very deserving family. We also deeply appreciate your thoughts, prayers, and messages of support for Jenn's family. Please consider sharing this fundraiser with others who knew and loved Jenn.

We are in the throes of organizing the services and will update you when the details are known.

On behalf of the Sullivan family, thank you for your support and love. We appreciate you all.
