Support Joe, Kids, & Family after a tragic loss

Donation protected
I'm Brittany, Tracy's oldest out of 4. My mom passed away unexpectedly from an asthma attack. We didn't get to get life insurance yet. I'm not sure how we can get the money for a proper 1-day viewing and the next day service for her. My dad is an ironworker, so jobs come and go. He was working but not full 40 hours a week due to no work. Me and my siblings are trying to help but don't have the funds right now. We are just asking to share, pray for us, and if you can donate, it would help. The rest that doesn't go to the funeral will help my dad pay the house bills until he is able to be back to work.


Anyone who knew my mommy would tell you she was a very happy person. She loved her kids, husband, grandkids, siblings, mother, and more. She would welcome anyone to the family with open arms, even our friends. She was all of our best friends. We told her everything. She was our therapist, our teacher, and our everything. She was our rock to the family. She left behind 4 grandchildren, a husband, 4 kids, 2 sons-in-law, a mother, 7 sisters, 3 brothers, and a bunch of nephews and nieces and great-nephews and nieces as well, along with her 5 dogs that she would say were her babies.

We all tried with CPR to save her. When she got to the hospital, she was dead. They restarted her heart, and it did start beating, but she stayed in a coma on a ventilator. When we went to visit this morning, the doctors told us to make a decision that she was 100% brain dead and the ventilator was keeping her alive and she wouldn't come out of it. So we know she wouldn't want to have machines keeping her in a coma and not enjoying her family, so we said our goodbyes today. This was the hardest decision to make for my dad and us kids, and it hurts so badly. Our hearts are broken without her. So I just ask, please share, donate if you can, and please pray for us all. Thank you all so much. It means a lot to our family.
