Hi all, thank you for taking the time to read this.
My name is Erik and this post is to help my father-in-law deal with the tragic loss of our beloved mother, mother-in law, grandmother, wife, and co-owner of Fry Home Services... Karen Fry.
Those who knew Karen, knew she was the most passionate and the most caring person one could ever meet. Unfortunately, we had an unexpected tragedy on Tuesday January 17th at 3:00AM. Karen had to be rushed to the hospital and our world was rocked. She suffered from multiple mini strokes due to high blood pressure. Karen sadly succumbed to her battle and passed away on January 20, 2023 @ 9:09AM after putting up such an amazing fight. Leaving behind all her lovely grand babies (Kayla, Dest, Lex, Jay-J, CaSara, Mason, Jaxson, Noah, Silas, Zane, Sebastian, Nate, Kenny and Alyssa, Hailey, Ty and Isaac.) Her daughters, Jodi, Macie & Casey (RIP). Her boys Josh, Charles and her husband co-owner of Fry Home Services, Randy Fry.
Karen would KILL me if she knew I started the gofundme, but this is not to cover any of the medical expenses or funeral services. Rather this is to cover my father-in-law's business as he lost the backbone of his company. Karen was the voice of the business. She made the calls, set the appointments, and kept everything running so smoothly. My father-in-law Randy, not only needs time off to grieve but when he gets back to it, he will need an adjustment period as well. He will now have to make the calls, set the appointments and handle the expenses that Karen would normally handle. On top of this new responsibility he would also still have to do all the jobs that are booked. So he would be pulling double or triple duty. The family will help on the admin side of course but there is still a learning curve until we can get it as smooth as Karen had it running.
This is something I am doing to help them and alleviate some of the stress that comes with a tragic loss. The stress that comes with such a blow not only to our family but to the Fry Home Services business.
All I ask is to search the business: Fry Home Services, ask around about Karen Fry, ask around about Randy Fry. I promise you, you will then understand the impact of our loss.
100% of the donations will be to cover the business side, and the bereavement time. GUARANTEED!
Thank you for reading this and please, hug your loved ones. Call your loved ones. Resolve issues with your loved ones. Tomorrow is not promised.
We love and miss you momma...
Pops we all promise to do our part and keep moving forward!
