WIDOW OF LEGENDARY SINGER LITTLE JIMMY SCOTT

I have come to gofund me because I am in CRISIS!

After ten years our mortgage company doubled the monthly payment.  I am living on Social Security, having a bad lower back from being a full-time caregiver to my husband for the 7 years he was an invalid.  I was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's desease.  At 70 years old I find myself at go fund me, which I never wanted to do,  except as a last resort, because I am facing certain foreclosure. I cannot afford to make the new high mortgage payments.  This means I along with our dog "Jim Dandy" must re-locate and move back east, which is extremely costly move in itself.  I do not want to lose all that we own or all the things Jimmy loved including his memorabilia (which will eventually go in a museum).

BACK STORY .............

Since the passing of my husband legendary singer Little Jimmy Scott I've been struggling to pay off debt left behind. Jimmy's medical bills, the house mortgage, and credit card that went into use when Jimmy broke his hip onstage July 6, 2007 (at the Detroit Museum of Art while taking a bow after a standing ovation, due to his weak left leg which threw him off balance) he was 82 years old.   Once Jimmy had to use a wheelchair the decent paying concerts dried up as no one wanted to hire a singer in a wheelchair.  It was tough.   We went through our savings paying bills, then force to use the credit card paying medical bills, etcetra as Jimmy's health declined with new issues as time went on. 

I wish I didn't have to go this route and if I had more time  I wouldn't be here but am under the gun and need to raise the money to pay for the move quickly.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Jeanie Scott
