Many people have asked how to help so here it is:

Kate was a prolific and hardworking artist. The loss of her business and benefits will be a challenge for me to adjust to as I rehab our home and transition into a new phase of my life without her. As her illness progressed our home became very difficult to maintain and is now in need of serious maintenance and repair before it can be confidently offered for sale. If you have the ability there is a gofundme link that follows. I want to thank you all for the support you have given me during this most difficult time.
