Lauren's Final Expenses

Donation protected
As most of you may know, my sister Lauren, has battled health issues the majority of her life. She was diagnosed with type 1 Diabetes at the age of 6 and has proven to be a fighter from the start. She went blind at the age of 25. Had a kidney and pancreas transplant not long after that and the myriad of health issues continued but Lauren faught long and hard. She decided to go back to school when she was blind and became the first Blind President of Phi Beta Kappa which is the National Honor Society for 2 year colleges. She then went on to become very involved with National Federation of the Blind. She strived at everything she did. She was a loving wife, daughter, sister, aunt and most of all friend. 

Today August 31, 2020 Lauren's battled ended. She was tired and her body was weary. Her poor heart gave out today. We never anticipated this day would come hense this page. We were never prepared for this.  We are asking very humbly for help with Lauren's final expenses. We will be cremating her and having some sort of celebration of life depending on what is allowed per the pandemic. There will be more info as soon as we know what we can do.

We appreciate any help that can be given.  As we know more info we will update this.

In Loving Memory of
Lauren Meredith Blum
