Support for Stefani's Family in Tragic Times

Donation protected
Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted supporters,

We are heartbroken to share the devastating news of the passing of Stefani Roberts, a loving mother, wife, friend and Preschool Teacher. As we mourn her loss, her husband Courtland is also facing the immense challenge of caring for their newborn child, Magnolia, who is currently in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) after being born at 25 weeks.

On May 25th, our lives were forever changed when Stefani passed away due to complications from Leukemia and the C-section. Her passing has left a void in the lives of her husband and their family. To add to this heartache, their newborn child, Magnolia, was born prematurely and is now receiving critical care in the NICU. This double tragedy has left their family in deep sorrow and facing significant financial burdens.

We are reaching out to ask for your support during this incredibly difficult time. The funds raised will be used to cover:

  • Funeral Expenses: Giving Stefani the respectful and loving farewell she deserves.
  • Medical Expenses: Covering the extensive NICU costs for Magnolia, including specialized care, treatments, and medications.
  • Living Expenses: Assisting Courtland with the immediate financial needs as he navigates this heartbreaking period and focuses on Magnolia's care.

Your support, whether financial or through sharing this campaign, means the world to us. Every donation helps, no matter the amount. It will allow her family to focus on grieving and supporting Magnolia through her critical first weeks of life.

We are deeply grateful for any assistance you can provide. Your generosity and kindness will never be forgotten during this time of profound loss and need. We will keep everyone updated on Magnolia's progress through this page.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support and prayers.
