Donation protected

Dear Friends, Family, and Community,

With heavy hearts, we share the unexpected passing of our beloved Shelby Broadnax's mother Maureen "Mo" Van Note, leaving behind five kids and seven grandchildren. Losing her so suddenly has left us not only grieving but also facing the overwhelming financial burden of arranging her farewell. As we navigate this difficult time, we humbly ask for your support to help us give her the dignified goodbye she deserves.

We are raising funds to cover essential costs, including:

Private Viewing & Funeral Arrangements – Ensuring we have a space where loved ones can say their final goodbyes.
Cremation Expenses – Covering the costs of a cremation service.
Death Certificates & Legal Documentation – Obtaining multiple copies for necessary legal processes.
Mailing & Administrative Costs – Handling essential paperwork, notifications, and estate matters.
Family Travel & Accommodations – Assisting immediate family members who need to travel to be present.
Any Additional Unexpected Expenses – Helping ease the financial stress as we finalize everything.
Every donation, big or small, makes a difference, and if you're unable to give, sharing this fundraiser would mean the world to us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your love, prayers, and support during this incredibly difficult time.

With love and gratitude,
Noël The First (a close friend) & Shelby Broadnax, daughter of "Mo"
