About this fundraiser

In May 2016, my husband Scott  suffered a fall that broke his neck by leaving him paralyzed as a quadriplegic. For years he was taken care of at home by our family, making it a challenge for me to be able to work full time to cover all the bills to pay for his needs, and then the future skilled nursing facility costs. Unfortunately, we were forced by the system to deplete all savings and life insurance policies to get the medical help we needed for him.

Scott passed away June 17,  2025 and our family is planning his funeral. As we all know, this is an expensive cost for which we do not have the funds to lay him to rest in the way we wish. In lieu of flowers, we humbly ask that if you are willing to help us cover the cost so that we can honor Scott in the way that he deserves we would be so grateful. Thank you for walking this journey with us and bringing us peace and comfort during this especially difficult time.
