Support for My Father After the Loss of His Wife

My name is Stephanie, and I’m reaching out during one of the most difficult times in our lives. On September 28, 2024, my mother Wendy Speigner passed away after a courageous two-year battle with colon cancer. For the last six months, my father Michael put his entire life on hold, leaving work to become her full-time caregiver, ensuring she received the love and care she needed in her final months.

My parents were happily married for 35 years, and the love they shared was truly beautiful. Their relationship was built on a foundation of love, strength, and devotion, and they supported each other through every challenge life brought their way. My father’s dedication to my mother during her battle with cancer was a testament to the deep bond they shared. Losing her has been devastating for all of us, but especially for him.

While we are grateful for the time we had with her, my father is now facing significant financial hardship due to medical bills and living expenses. With limited income for the past six months and mounting medical costs, we are hoping to raise funds to help ease the burden on my father as he navigates this heartbreaking chapter of his life.

Any amount you can contribute would mean the world to us and help my father get back on his feet after this devastating loss. Your support—whether through donations or simply sharing this campaign—will provide much-needed relief during this incredibly challenging time.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and generosity.
