Unfortunately my family has suffered another tragic loss this New Year, with the unexpected passing of my grandfather, Douglas Kline of Cochranton, PA. He passed away in his sleep early morning of January 2nd.

My grandmother, his loving wife of many years, is of course struggling, and has had a medical episode herself from the trauma. She will now be off of work for an undetermined amount of time as she heals and grieves. They also did not have a life insurance policy to cover any funeral expenses. She has been the primary provider for herself and her youngest daughter, Lillian for many years, and now will simply not have enough income to get through.

Today, I'm asking for help to relieve some of the burden and stress from my grandmother in her darkest time of need to help her cover memorial costs and living expenses until she gets back on her feet.
