Tragically, 3 children lost their mother as a result of a homicide in Saginaw MI.  My sister, Melissa Olivarez has lost her life at the early age of 36 (She is in the Pink shirt).  She leaves behind 3 children who are responsible for paying for their mom’s funeral and burial.  In addition, the oldest (age 19) is helping raise the two younger siblings (ages 18 and 13).  My sister did not have any life insurance and we are not sure how we are going to pay for her funeral.  We are asking for any help our friends and family can provide.  No amount is too small.   

We thank you for your help, condolences, and prayers.  We also ask that you continue to keep our family in your prayers as we struggle through this difficult time.
