At 10:15pm on May 2nd, 2026, my mom Stephanie has passed away, and my family and I are facing the hardest task of them all, which is saying goodbye. This loss has left me and the rest of our friends and family heartbroken, and we are doing our best to honor her memory and wishes during this incredibly painful, difficult time. We are hoping to raise funds to help with her funeral and burial expenses. It is especially important to us to fulfill her wish of being buried next to her daughter, so she can rest in peace with her. Your support will help us cover these costs and ease the financial stress we are experiencing, allowing us to focus on celebrating her life and legacy. After losing my dad in 2020 and now having to go through this I’m beyond devastated, and the emotions are so overwhelming. We want to give her the farewell she deserves. She was surrounded by family and friends, and we want to remember her for the love and kindness she shared with everyone, as she was a Baldwinsville Firefighter, a nurse, and an EMT. Anything would be beyond greatly appreciated as we prepare for her celebration of life and services. Thank you so much for helping our family. Your kindness and generosity mean more than words can express.

My mom has been in the hospital for the past month battling a toxic level of ammonia building up in her liver. This has caused her to develop an infection and also stopped her kidneys from functioning. It’s been an incredibly difficult time for our family, watching her fight through so much and not being able to do more to help her heal. We’re hopeful she’ll get better in time. The funds raised here will go directly toward supporting her treatments and covering monthly bills that have become increasingly difficult to pay. With her time in the hospital taking priority over work, it’s been a challenge to keep up with everything. Every bit of support will help ease the financial burden and allow us to focus on what matters most—her recovery and well-being. Any help is beyond greatly appreciated. Every penny will be going toward getting my mom back home with us. We can’t thank you enough for your help and support through this.
