Gone too soon

I have  organized this go fund me page for the Valdez-Rowe family and with their permission share their story :

On Monday, June 8, 2020, a day that will forever be etched in our memory,  Aly was taken from her family and friends  by the hands of another.

 Although she was only with us for a short 22 years, she touched so many lives with her infectious personality, her enthusiasm for life, her love for her family, friends, her animals and her community. 

Aly had a gift, she made everyone she came in contact with feel important and loved.  She had so many dreams and so many goals,  only to have them cut short tragically. 

The family is devastated from such a senseless incident and unprepared to financially cover all of the expenses of a funeral, traveling to get her personal belongings from out of state, to care for her two pets that are temporarily being kept at an animal shelter.  

No parent is ever prepared for the death of a child and when it happens so cruelly it is all the more painful and financially stressful. 

Please consider donating to Aly’s family to help ease the burden of such an unexpected loss. 

Your donations will help cover costs of the funeral, traveling to retrieve her pets and to organize a scholarship for little girls like Aly,  who loved to dance  

thank you from the Valdez-Rowe family
