Friends,

Abi and Lydia’s mom, Vickie, fought a long, hard battle with cancer, and passed away peacefully on July 12. After suffering for so long, she expressed that she was ready to go to heaven and be at peace. This time came unexpected and Abi and Lydia are navigating such difficult feelings and decisions right now. They are in need of help to hold a celebration of life service for their mom and cremate her, as per her wishes. These funds will help them carry out her end-of-life wishes and honor her in a special way. 

Vickie lived with grace and humor. She loved her daughters, her family, and her friends well. She will be so missed. 

Thank you for helping, extending love to the Mattern family and honoring Vickie in this way.
