We are friends of Ron's, and are asking for your help with the expenses he is facing surrounding the sudden death of his daughter, Christine.

Parents shouldn't lose their children. Parents are never prepared to lose their children. And Christine wasn't only Ron's daughter, she was also his roommate and a companion he relied on.

Christine was an animal lover who rescued unwanted ferrets and treated her dogs, and Ron's, like her babies. She was a crafter and an artist, a painter, and a lightning-fast crocheter. An avid reader, a lover of antiques, Christine leaves a big hole in the hearts of those who loved her.

Any amount that you can spare will be so appreciated, and will help as Ron begins to put his life together.
