Our dear friends S and J, who would like to remain anonymous, suddenly and tragically lost their mother this past Saturday, 03/07/26. She was the matriarch of their family, a mother of 4 who dedicated her life to caring for her children, grandchildren, and pets, as well as for her community and her impressive garden. Her passing has taken a massive toll on everyone who knew her, but especially her youngest children, S and J, who shared a home with her. Because of this living situation, S and J will inherit expenses and debts that they weren’t previously responsible for. They will also take on the primary caregiver role for their two dogs (photos attached) that have behavioral issues as well as for their mom’s extensive plant collection. This will put a lot of strain on them emotionally and financially as they begin to grieve and plan for their future without her. With the help of donations received here, we would like to provide a safety net for our friends so they can afford to take the time off from work that they need and to cover any expenses with the home, utility bills, meals, transportation, potential legal fees, and pet and plant supplies.
