Support Mama Linda and Don After Tragic Loss

Donation protected
When Mama Linda left her house in the early hours of January 8th, she took only the essentials, believing she would have a home to return to.

She soon learned that the place she had called home for nearly 50 years—and much of her Altadena community—was completely gone. The supplies she used to create her beautiful stained glass art. The trophy Mo received for winning the British Open. The "Happy Birthday" sign her children made 40 years ago, lovingly displayed each year for celebrations. All gone.

Now Mama, her son Don, and their animals have to figure out what's next. We are asking friends and family to help make that journey a little easier.

Mama's home was a hub of joy. Many of you have experienced that firsthand. For those of you who haven't—please believe me when I tell you that Mama's was not just a house; it was truly a home. The loss of it was a gut punch to so many people. Your support will go a long way in giving some of that joy back to Mama when she needs it most.

We encourage you to donate and share this link with others. Share a Mama story to go with it (we know you all have one) and keep her and Don in your thoughts and prayers.
