After experiencing the sudden loss of my father, my 24-year-old baby sister, and my 18-year-old daughter, I found myself navigating a world of grief I never expected. These losses changed me forever, and I realized how isolating and overwhelming sudden loss can be. Through my own journey, I discovered a deep calling to support others who are facing the same unimaginable pain.

As a Grief Advocate, I travel wherever the need arises to offer comfort and support to families who have just lost a loved one. For example, when my former boss passed away near Thanksgiving in November 2025, I used my own resources to send a plant and traveled from Las Vegas back to my home base in Spokane to be there for his family. These acts of support—whether it’s a thoughtful gesture or simply being present—can make a world of difference to someone in the depths of grief.

The funds raised here will help cover the costs of travel, lodging, meals, and direct aid for families experiencing sudden loss. Every contribution, no matter the size, will go directly to helping families in their time of insurmountable loss and grief. Your support means I can continue to be there for those who need it most, offering hope and compassion when it’s needed most.
