It saddens me to have to be creating this GoFundMe for my eldest child/daughter. I’m at a loss for words but can tell you that Melinda was the world to me, her children, and siblings, and family. Our life will never be the same. My heart is so heavy and we have to prepare her memorial.

It would be greatly appreciated for any help/donation that could be spared. She’s left behind 4 wonderful children: Christopher Jr., Cameron, Calista, and Calayah. She deserves a proper home going and with all of your help, hopefully, I’ll be able to provide that for her. My heart is truly broken.

I appreciate all the kind friends, family, and kind strangers that will help with this heavy process. Again, thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

On another note my daughter has 4 children 3 of which are still minors. Not only did my daughter just pass but Alysea Charlton is trying to steal my grandchildren from us for financial gain. This girl isn’t family and is doing everything to keep my daughter’s kids away from their family. I’m trying to put together money for an attorney at this time too. Our next court date is August 30, 2024. I’ve raised the goal amount up I’m fighting for my daughter to get her children back with family as this was Melinda’s dying wish that her children were with family and not Alysea. This girl acted like a friend but then stabbed Melinda in her back towards the end. Any help would be appreciated.
