My beloved mother, Lisa, recently passed away tragically in a house fire. She was an incredible fighter, having faced and beating stage 4 cancer a few years back with unimaginable courage, strength, and grace. Even while battling illness, she never lost her warmth, her humor, or her love for those around her. Losing her so suddenly and traumatically has left an emptiness that words cannot describe.

We are trying to raise funds to cover urgent expenses, including:

• Funeral and cremation costs to honor her life with dignity

• Demolition of the burned home to safely clear the property

• Fulfilling her lifelong dream of visiting Hawaii to spread her ashes in a place she always loved

Hawaii was a place Lisa always dreamed of visiting. It captured her imagination, her love for nature, and her spirit of adventure. Taking her there to honor her memory would mean the world to our family and is a way to celebrate the life she lived so fully.

Any contribution, no matter how small, will help us give Lisa the tribute she deserves. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this campaign with friends and family would mean so much.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting us during this incredibly difficult time. Your kindness, thoughts, and prayers mean more than we can express.
