The Westerman Family needs our help!♥️

My dear sister-in-law, Jenn Westerman Bade needs our help! Jenn and her elderly father Frank Westerman are planning a funeral for her sister and his daughter, Heather.

Sadly, Heather succumbed to her struggles with substance abuse on Nov. 18th- 1 day short of her 46th birthday. Love was not enough for Jenn and Frank to save Heather. A funeral service will allow those who loved her to celebrate her life and light. Heather, with all of her challenges, still made the world a better place by helping others in need- both people and animals. She truly will be missed!

If you know Jenn, you know she founded the nonprofit Tampa Bay Party Project that hosts birthday parties for children in need. She has worked as an Exceptional Student Ed teacher, teaching autistic children and those with learning difficulties. She is also a great mom and a friend to all. She has dedicated her life to helping others.

Frank is a Vietnam Army Veteran and a retired Greenberg Police Officer from Westchester County. Now is our chance to help give back to Jenn and Frank and honor Heather’s memory. This celebration of a life ended too soon will help begin the healing journey for all who knew and loved Heather!

As you gather this holiday season to spend time with those you love, please remember those who are heartbroken! All donations will be managed by Jenn and will go towards funeral expenses. Every donation, kind thought, positive energy sent, and prayer help out and will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Barbara Bade
