Hello, my name is Christina. Michelle Tallman is my younger cousin. I created this fundraiser to help support her family during this tough time. Michelle lost her long hard battle with Lupus 6/1/2021. She fought so hard but her body could no longer match her will. Michelle was a true beauty, inside and out. Ever since I can remember she was always going above and beyond to help those less fortunate. She made sure the people who seemed to be forgotten by their family knew she was there for them. That little girl grew up, left smoggy and crowded L.A. to make a home in Oregon. Michelle married and had two girls, Aubrey (8 years old) and Sarah (10 years old). Her husband Raymond was recently hit by a car walking home with Aubrey. With a broken leg, he walked to visit Michelle in the hospital every day. He has yet to have surgery and get a cast. He is now the only parent for his girls and needs our help to get better and not only pay for Michelle's burial costs but also take the time necessary to recover from his injuries. This family has been through hell and really needs our help. Please family and friends, if you have any money to spare to donate to this fund I will get the money to Raymond as soon as possible. I set a goal of $1,000 but it should really be $10,000 to cover lost wages, burial costs, hospital bills, food, and rent...the bare essentials this family needs to get through this time. I will increase the goal if we reach $1k. **You can elect to give/tip GoFundMe nothing when making your donation and then 100% of your money will go to Raymond and the girls. For tip option choose other and input 0. Please message me with any questions or if you need help making a donation. We thank you in advance for your prayers, love, and generosity.
