My sister was a loving mother and a devoted member of her community. She spent her life caring for her family as a stay-at-home mother and housewife, and later worked outside the home when her children grew up. Throughout her life, she gave generously to the Catholic Church, always supporting her faith and those in need.

Sadly, she passed away recently. Like so many families, we are facing financial hardship, and the cost of cremation and funeral arrangements is more than we can manage right now. My sister did not have the means to plan for her funeral due to a lack of marital support in her later years, and this unexpected expense has placed a heavy burden on our family.

We are reaching out to our community for help. Any support you can offer will go directly toward covering the funeral costs and easing the financial strain on our family. Thank you to everyone who considers helping us honor my sister's memory. Your kindness and generosity mean more than words can express.

If you are not comfortable donating through GoFundMe, contributions can also be sent directly to Furber and White Funeral Home in the name of Carol Benson.
