We Love You, Dave Wardell! (Funeral Expenses)

Donation protected


On March 16, 2021, this world lost a kind, hardworking, wonderful man named Dave Wardell. He spent his entire life loving horses and passed that passion on to his only child, Joanne, his pride and joy. Dave was less than one month away from retiring and planned to spend his retirement on horseback with his "little girl".



Joanne is above and beyond more responsible and mature than most 22-year-olds but with no insurance or monies set back for funeral expenses, she is facing the daunting task of paying for her beloved father's cremation and memorial. She is engaged and plans to be married in May of this year: a funeral and a wedding are both very expensive and stressful events without having to do both of them on your own within 90 days of each other.



Joanne is a very hard-working young woman and her father was her whole world. Let's get together and, in honor of the man who would've given the shirt off his back for someone he loved, take care of the one he loved the most.


Dave Wardell, you were so good to us. It's time to repay the favor.
Ride on, cowboy. We'll see you again one day.
