Support Crystal Carpenter's Funeral Costs

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Mackenzie. I wish I was writing under happier circumstances, but I’m reaching out because I need help covering the cost of my mom’s funeral.

My mom, Crystal Carpenter, some of you may have known her as Critter, passed away suddenly this morning (5/21) at her home in Georgia. She was only 43. My brother and I are still in shock, trying to wrap our minds around a world without her in it.

If you knew my mom, you knew how deeply she loved her family and her dogs. She had a huge heart, always trying to help others even when she was struggling herself. The last few months were especially hard. Her health declined fast, she was doing weekly blood infusions at the cancer center, had recently broken her hip, and her diabetes was taking a serious toll. Through everything, she fought hard. Four years ago, she found her way to sobriety, and I was so proud to see her rebuild her life and keep fighting through her pain.

I hate asking for help, but I just can’t afford her funeral on my own. I want to lay her to rest with dignity and the love she deserves. Anything you can give helps, even sharing this or saying a prayer for our family means the world.

If you’re not comfortable donating through GoFundMe, donations can also be made directly to Davis & Powell Funeral Home in Berea, KY, under the name Crystal Carpenter.

Thank you for reading, and for caring about my mom. She was one of a kind, and we’re going to miss her every day.
