Funeral Rites for Judy Skarsten

Donation protected
Judy Ann Skarsten passed unexpectedly late Thursday night (1-3-19) in a tragic accident in her Greenbelt, Maryland home. 

Unfortunately, a plan was not in place, a will absent, and funds were not allocated to help ease her family’s transition.

We ask our loving friends and greater community to help us give Judy the funeral and burial rites that she so emphatically deserves.

For the past few years, Judy has been fighting tooth and nail to have a medical procedure to improve her balance that may have saved her life, but was devastatingly too late. She leaves behind a wonderful daughter, Theoni and countless friends that have been working tirelessly to get her affairs in order.

Please help us to achieve our very noble goal. Send your thoughts and prayers to Judy and her family.
“May her memory be for a blessing.”

Funds to cover the cost of the funeral homes’ care + memorial service for Judy is $3000.

Funds to cover her burial rites in a community plot will estimate to $2000.

Funds to cover a modest headstone will be approximately $1500

We humbly ask for your aid to get to our goal of $6500.

We thank you for your support from the depths of our grief-stricken hearts and hope that when Judy is laid to rest, it will bring peace to her family and loved-ones.

God Bless You!

Update!!!!
Due to the incredible outcry of support from our amazing community, we are continuing the campaign for Judy and accepting any additional donations which will be allocated to a reception for Judy’s celebration of life ceremony currently being planned. We expect  a great deal of friends and well-wishers and everything will help to make it a meaningful ceremony.

Celebration of Life Ceremony is tentatively being planned for March 2nd, 2019 at a school where Judy used to teach.
