Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,

We are reaching out to ask for your support in helping Abby Barber Hawkins, a devoted mother to two beautiful children, navigate an incredibly difficult chapter in her life. Just weeks after welcoming her baby girl, Catherine Kase, into the world and preparing to celebrate her son Bronx’s 2nd birthday this September, Abby faced the unimaginable loss of her fiancé and the father of her children to terminal cancer.

Her fiancé fought a brave and courageous battle, but his passing has left her not only grieving but also facing the challenges of raising two young children on her own. As you can imagine, this is an overwhelming and heartbreaking time for her and her family.

We are starting this GoFundMe to help alleviate some of the financial burden she now faces as a single mother. The funds raised will go toward:

- *Basic living expenses

- *Childcare and baby essentials* for Catherine and Bronx

Abby is an incredible woman with endless love for her children. Any contribution, big or small, will make a meaningful difference in her life as she begins to rebuild and provide a stable future for Catherine and Bronx.

If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this page to help us spread the love. Your kindness, love, and support mean the world to this young family.

Let’s come together to honor the memory of Kase Hawkins, celebrate the strength of this incredible mother, and give Catherine and Bronx support as they navigate this difficult time.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

With gratitude,

her family and friends
