Help For Earl's Giselle

Donation protected
Giselle Shepatin and Earl Crabb met in the skies, thanks to the airline that seated them together. It has truly been a match made in heaven. For the past 22 years, Earl and Giselle have been a love story like no other. Earl passed away Friday, February 20. Although Earl had pancreatic cancer, the end came suddenly and unexpectedly. In addition to dealing with her grief, Giselle will now have to uncover all the mysteries of Earl’s computer systems. He did everything for Giselle and the business.

Several of us have spoken about how we could best support Giselle and, honestly, what she needs most right now is financial help to get through this huge transition. In addition to needing time to figure out how Earl did all the many things he did for her, there are still medical expenses, the loss of Earl’s income, and the loss of sales that came when Earl’s passing coincided with a major New York wholesale show. This typically brings in about 1/3 of her annual sales. She needs short term help until she lands on her feet.

If you are someone who could help Giselle with the huge task of getting into Earl’s computers and helping her understand his programs, please let her know.

You can make a gift through GoFundMe (GoFundMe deducts 8% from your donation) or you can send a check directly to Giselle. You can send a check to Earl's PO Box, but make sure to send it c/o Earl Crabb, POB5028, Berkeley, CA 94705. It must be in care of Earl or it will get returned.
