<div>Help Us Give Lillian the Goodbye She Deserves
</div>
<div>A mother. A daughter. A sister. A fighter.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Kathy Croxen, and I’m writing this to share my sister Lillian Pelletier’s story and to ask for support with her funeral and memorial arrangements.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This has been one of the hardest things our family has ever faced.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⭐ Lillian Wasn’t Just Sick — She Fought for Her Life
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Five years ago, Lillian was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. She never let it break her. She fought for her four kids. She fought for her family. She fought for every moment she could hold onto — even when treatments failed, even when her body was exhausted, even when the cancer kept returning.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For the past two years, the cancer spread more aggressively than anyone expected. Still, Lillian tried to live her life between hospital stays, creating memories her children could hold onto — memories of their mom smiling despite the pain.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⭐ Her Final Weeks Were Heartbreaking
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In November, everything took a turn. Lillian grew so weak she could barely walk. Hospital visits became constant. Yet she had one wish:
</div>
<div>to spend her birthday, November 28th, at home with her children.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The hospital granted her a 24-hour pass. She went home, spent time with her kids, and tried to make the day feel normal. That same night she collapsed and was rushed back to the hospital. Doctors told our mother, Antoinette Sorgente, that she might not make it through the night. Family gathered to say their goodbyes.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Lillian held on until December 7th at 12:27 AM, when she passed away peacefully with her mother, her partner, and loved ones by her side.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⭐ Now We’re Preparing Her Farewell
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Lillian devoted everything she had — emotionally, physically, and financially — to staying alive for her children. She didn’t have life insurance, and the reality is that funeral costs are more than our family can manage on our own.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are working to give Lillian a respectful, loving farewell that reflects who she was: strong, caring, and deeply loved. As we organize her services, we’re asking for support from anyone who is able.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⭐ How You Can Help
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any contribution toward Lillian’s funeral expenses is appreciated, and even sharing this page helps more than you know. Every bit of support brings us closer to giving her children and our family the closure we need during this difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for taking the time to read Lillian’s story, and thank you for your kindness, support, and prayers. ❤️ Aidez-nous à donner à Lillian les adieux qu'elle mérite 
</div>

<div>Une mère. Une fille. Une sœur. Une battante.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Je m'appelle Kathy Croxen et j'écris ceci pour partager l'histoire de ma sœur, Lillian Pelletier, et solliciter votre soutien pour l'organisation de ses funérailles et de la cérémonie commémorative.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>C'était l'une des épreuves les plus difficiles que notre famille ait jamais traversées.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⭐ Lillian n'était pas seulement malade, elle s'est battue pour sa vie.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Il y a cinq ans, on a diagnostiqué un cancer des ovaires à Lillian. Elle n'a jamais laissé la maladie la briser. Elle s'est battue pour ses quatre enfants. Elle s'est battue pour sa famille. Elle s'est battue pour chaque instant, même lorsque les traitements échouaient, même lorsque son corps était épuisé, même lorsque le cancer récidivait.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Au cours des deux dernières années, le cancer s'est propagé plus agressivement que prévu. Malgré tout, Lillian a essayé de vivre pleinement sa vie entre deux hospitalisations, créant des souvenirs précieux pour ses enfants, des souvenirs de leur mère souriant malgré la douleur.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⭐ Ses dernières semaines furent déchirantes
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>En novembre, tout a basculé. Lillian était tellement faible qu'elle pouvait à peine marcher. Les visites à l'hôpital sont devenues constantes. Pourtant, elle n'avait qu'un seul souhait :
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>passer son anniversaire, le 28 novembre, chez elle avec ses enfants.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>L'hôpital lui a accordé un congé de 24 heures. Elle est retournée à la maison, a passé du temps avec ses enfants et a essayé de vivre une journée normale. Cette même nuit, elle s'est écroulée et a été ramenée d'urgence à l'hôpital. Les docteurs ont dit à notre mère, Antoinette Sorgente, qu'elle ne passerait peut-être pas la nuit. La famille s'est réunie pour lui dire adieu.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Lillian s'est accrochée jusqu'au 7 décembre à 00 h 27, heure à laquelle elle s'est éteinte paisiblement, entourée de sa mère, de son conjoint et de ses proches.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⭐ On prépare ses funérailles maintenant
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Lillian a consacré tout son être – émotif, physique et financier – à rester en vie pour ses enfants. Elle n'avait pas d'assurance-vie, et la réalité est que les frais de funérailles dépassent les capacités financières de notre famille.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Nous faisons tout notre possible pour offrir à Lillian des adieux respectueux et empreints d'amour, à son image : forte, attentionnée et profondément aimée. Dans le cadre de l'organisation de ses funérailles, nous vous demandons votre soutien.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>⭐ Comment vous pouvez nous aider
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Toute contribution aux frais funéraires de Lillian est précieuse, et même le simple fait de partager cette page nous est d'une aide inestimable. Chaque geste compte et nous rapproche de notre objectif : offrir à nos enfants et à notre famille la sérénité dont nous avons besoin en cette période difficile.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Merci d'avoir pris le temps de lire l'histoire de Lillian, et merci pour votre gentillesse, votre soutien et vos prières. ❤️
</div>
