My mother has always been a pillar of our community, known and loved by friends, family, co-workers, and so many residents in the surrounding cities. She dedicated years to the local school district and the Duarte Library, touching countless lives with her kindness and generosity. Now, as she faces the challenges of rapidly declining dementia, our family is doing everything we can to support her through this difficult time.

Unfortunately, the costs of her care have quickly become overwhelming. Her insurance does not cover many of the medical expenses, supplies, and daily living needs she now requires. We are also preparing for end-of-life expenses and funeral arrangements, which add to the financial strain. It’s hard to ask for help, but we know that every bit of support can make a real difference for her comfort and dignity.

We are deeply grateful for any generosity, help, or support you can offer for my mother. She is tremendously loved, and your contribution—whether financial or through sharing kind words and memories—means the world to us. Thank you for being part of her story and for helping us honor the incredible person she is.
