Catoosa First is organizing this fundraiser for Mike and Mary Moore’s 12-year-old daughter after an unthinkable tragedy. Mike and Mary, a beloved couple in their church community, were tragically murdered on August 28 at their business. They were some of the most loving and caring people, always looking for ways to help others and serve those around them. Earlier this year, they finalized the adoption of their daughter, making this devastating loss even more heartbreaking for everyone who knew and loved them.

This fundraiser is being created to help with funeral costs and to provide ongoing support for their daughter as she faces the days ahead without her parents. In the middle of this sudden and painful loss, our church hopes to surround her with as much care and stability as possible. Any support, whether through a donation or by sharing this fundraiser, will mean so much. Please keep Mike and Mary Moore’s daughter and family in your prayers and consider helping her during this incredibly difficult time.

Our church will be receiving the donations and paying for the funeral costs of Mike and Mary. All other funds received will be set up in a trust for Emma.
