Our family is heartbroken after the sudden loss of Roger Elder, a loving husband, devoted father, and the sole provider for his family.

He leaves behind his wife, Mary, and their son, Simon, who has autism and benefits from ongoing support and therapy. Because she has been the primary caregiver for Simon’s needs, Mary has been unable to work outside the home full-time.

In an instant, this family has gone from relying on one income to facing overwhelming uncertainty while grieving an unimaginable loss.

We are starting this fundraiser to help ease the immediate financial burden during this incredibly difficult time. Donations will help cover:

• Mortgage and utilities

• Groceries and household essentials

• Autism-related therapies and care needs

• Medical expenses

• Short-term living expenses while long-term support is arranged

Anyone who knew Roger knows how deeply he loved his family and worked hard to provide for them. Right now, we want to help ensure that Mary and Simon have stability, support, and time to grieve without the constant fear of losing their home or falling behind financially.

No donation is too small, and every share truly helps. If you are unable to give financially, please consider sharing this fundraiser and keeping this family in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support during this heartbreaking time.
