Support for Henrietta’s Final Journey

Donation protected

We are fundraising for the final expenses of our beloved mother and grandmother, Henrietta Cook. At 88 years of age, Henrietta passed away on April 9, 2026, without savings or life insurance. What little money she had was spent on her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. If we were in need, Henrietta was there to help her family out. She also loved giving birthday and Christmas gifts to all the kids, often going far over budget.


Henrietta was very adventurous. She participated in community theater while living in California, and she sailed the South Pacific with a local crew based out of Ventura. Henrietta also traveled to Europe and took her grandson to China when he was 13.


We are trying to raise $1600 for Henrietta’s final expenses. Henrietta wanted to be cremated and have her ashes scattered so she would always be journeying. If you feel led to support, any contribution — no matter the amount — is deeply appreciated. If you are unable to give, sharing this page means just as much. Any additional funds raised will go towards her outstanding bills. We thank you for your kind generosity and prayers.
