Caylee Strickland was a beautiful, caring, and giving person who always tried to help others, even if it meant she would go without. As her best friend, I saw firsthand how much she loved her family and friends. Sadly, after a long battle with addiction, Caylee passed away suddenly due to a drug overdose. Her loss has left a deep void in the lives of those who loved her, especially her mother, Sharon, and her 4-year-old daughter, Zoey.

Sharon has always been a strong and independent person, managing to take care of things on her own. But now, as she faces the heartbreak of losing her daughter and the responsibility of caring for young Zoey, she needs our help. The funds raised will go toward giving Caylee the final goodbye she deserves and helping Sharon support Zoey during this difficult transition. Sharon is planning to return to work to provide for Zoey, but the costs of raising a child and covering final expenses are overwhelming.

We are reaching out to our community for support. Anything donated would be a blessing and would mean so much to Sharon and Zoey. Sharon is deeply grateful for any help received, even though asking for help is not easy for her. Your kindness and generosity will help give Caylee the farewell she deserves and provide much-needed support for her family.
