Support for Denis's Family in Difficult Times

Donation protected
Dear Friends, Family, and Kind-Hearted Strangers,

On behalf of my mother, I share the sudden and unexpected passing of my stepfather, Denis Bedard. His absence has left a profound void in her life, both emotionally and financially. I am reaching out to our community in hopes of gathering support to cover the costs of his service and help us navigate these challenging times.

Denis was a man of many passions and talents. An avid motorcyclist, he found joy and freedom on the open road, reflecting his adventurous spirit and zest for life. His greatest pride and joy came from his role as a grandfather. He played an integral part in raising his three grandchildren, nurturing them with love, wisdom, and countless memories that will be cherished forever.

In recent years, his family has faced significant financial challenges. Denis was a cornerstone of his family’s stability, not just emotionally but also economically. He co-ran the family cleaning business with my mom, supporting the family through his hard work and skills. He also supported his daughter by providing childcare and transportation, enabling her to work and care for her children.

Now, as we grieve his loss, his family is also confronted with the harsh reality of financial instability. Denis left behind a loving wife, a devoted daughter, and three adoring grandchildren, all of whom depended on him. His sudden departure means they 7are struggling to cover not only the costs of his funeral service but also the day-to-day expenses that he helped manage. They are, quite frankly, having to decide whether to keep the lights on or postpone his service.

I humbly ask for your support during this incredibly difficult time for my mom and sister. Any contribution, no matter how small, will go a long way in helping them honor Denis's memory with a proper service and ease the financial burden on their family as we try to rebuild their lives without him.

If they are able to afford a service soon I will keep everyone posted.

Thank you for your generosity and for keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers.

With gratitude,
Tyler and Family
