My husband, Allen Starkweather, was only 39 years old when he passed away suddenly on Valentine’s Day. His loss was completely unexpected, and we weren’t prepared for anything. Allen was a loving partner and friend, and his absence has left a huge hole in my life and our home.

Right now, I am facing many challenges, including the cost of his funeral, keeping up with bills, and making sure there’s food on the table. The support from this fundraiser will help me cover these urgent needs and give me some breathing room as I navigate this difficult time. Allen was someone who always cared for others, and now I am reaching out for help to honor his memory and keep our household together.

I appreciate all the help and support from everyone. Your kindness means so much to me, and any contribution will make a real difference. Thank you for being here for me and honoring Allen’s memory during this difficult time.
