With the heaviest of hearts for my one and only beloved daughter, I am writing this official letter of donation request. On Tuesday May 18, 2021, I found my daughter lying on the floor unresponsive with a blow to the head in a puddle of blood. As I proceeded to assist her, it was with the deepest regret I found my baby girl cold and lifeless. With confusion leading my thoughts because I was told by her husband she was in the room getting dressed, and hurt orchestrating my moves, my heart fell completely down to the ground.

Although my reaction ignited their curiosity, I immediately called for help and tried my best avoiding her children from seeing what I just saw. Something NO mother should ever have to witness.

As many of you know, she died from the hands of her husband, leaving behind four little ones, all under the age of ten. While police searched for his whereabouts, my husband and only son received text messages from him admitting to killing her and was now heading to end it for himself. The car was later found at the highest point of the Zilwaukee bridge with the car door open where he drove and decided to take his own life. His body was found a day later in the Saginaw River.

This sudden and unexpected loss has not only left us in emotional despair, but also in desperate need of funding the cost of a burial for our loved one. No amount given will lessen our heartbreak, but it will be greatly appreciated as we earnestly prepare to say our final farewells.

In lieu of food, flowers, and prayers, We’re asking for your help in covering funeral and burial costs. Any contribution, be it large or small would help us achieve our goal.

And I truly truly thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Sincerely,   

                               -One distraught Mom....
