It is with a heavy heart that I’m sharing the passing of my dad, who passed away on Christmas Eve after suffering a massive heart attack that led to cardiac arrest. His passing was unexpected and has left my family in shock and deep grief. My dad was a devoted man who meant the world to his family. He offered guidance and gave love freely. Losing him during the holiday season has been incredibly painful.

While his wife does have a life insurance policy in place, it’s only been active for a year, and unfortunately, the funds are not accessible at this time. This has created an unexpected financial burden as we try to cover funeral and memorial expenses to give him the dignified home going he deserves.

I am humbly asking for support during this difficult time. Any contribution—no matter the amount—will help ease the financial stress and allow my family to focus on grieving and honoring his life. If you are unable to donate, I ask that you please share this page and keep my family in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you for your love, kindness, and support during one of the hardest moments of our lives. With gratitude, Deitra Ballard & family.
