When I talked to my mom on her birthday, I had no idea it would be the last time I would talk to her. Two days later she was admitted to the hospital with Covid-19, and a week later she's gone.

 

She's going to be cremated at Jones Funeral Home in Jacksonville, NC and then we'll take her back to New Castle, PA to be laid to rest with my Grandpa.

 

My sister and I are asking for help paying for the cost of cremation. A friend has generously booked me two nights stay in Jacksonville so I can go say my final goodbyes.

 

We're thankful to everyone who takes the time to read this and everyone who has already offered their condolences.
