It is with a broken heart that I reach out for love, prayers, and support as my family and I face the unimaginable loss of our beautiful mother. Our mom went missing on October 28, and our worst fears became reality when her body was discovered in the river in Richland, Washington. We are devastated and left with so many unanswered questions surrounding her death. Nothing could have prepared us for this heartbreak.

Our mom was more than a mother. She was a grandmother, a loved one, and someone who meant the world to so many. She leaves behind me, my four siblings, and numerous grandchildren who were not ready to say goodbye.

Unfortunately, our mom had no life insurance or financial arrangements in place. While trying to process this devastating loss, we are also struggling to cover funeral expenses, outstanding bills, and possible legal fees to recover her personal belongings from her apartment. We need this support as soon as possible.

Asking for help is not easy, but we cannot do this alone. We simply want to give our mom the proper goodbye and service she deserves and find the answers our family desperately needs. Any donation, no matter how small, would mean the world to us. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing our story and keeping our family in your prayers. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support during the hardest time of our lives.
