Funeral Costs + Hosptial Bills

Connie Schoonard. If you knew her, you'd say she was the most loving, beautiful, dedicated mother and wife. She always went out of her way for others and her family and had the biggest heart you can imagine. 

Now, with a heavy  and broken heart, we now have to hold her in our hearts instead of our arms. 

Last night, on November 12th, 2016, Connie ran into the arms of Jesus after having a severe heart attack.  We all were at the hosptial waiting to hear that she was going to be okay, but instead we had to find out the terrible truth that she was no longer with us. This was very sudden, and there was no known heart conditions that she had previously. This totally blind sided us.

I, Amanda, her niece, am trying to do what I can to help out my Uncle Tim, and her children-my cousins- during this terrible time. 

They don't know how they are going to pay for the funeral, burial, and hospital expenses. I'm asking for everyone to please be praying first and foremost for our family, but also if you feel lead to give, then please do. Even the smallest amount would be a huge blessing to our family, and it would take a large burden of their shoulders as they grieve for their mother and wife. 

This family is so amazing. They have dedicated their lives to God and to their family. If you saw the love and bond this family has, you'd agree that it was rare and true. They are so lost right now, and I only hope we can give them a tool to help with this process. 

We would be so beyond grateful for any donations towards my Aunt Connie's funeral expenses and bills. You have no idea how a little will go a long way. Please consider donating and helping this loving family. 

With all the love in my heart,

Amanda Petry
