Background
Over the past two weeks, our mom, Della, fought and battled various illnesses in the hospital. Staff from the hospital may have updated us by phone once daily, but we were not allowed to visit or see her during her stay. On March 12, 2023, our family received a tough phone call that she was succumbing to various illnesses. This strong and courageous woman that fought for so long was losing a battle we could not help her through. We were used to her being such a strong fighter. Her strength was unmatched. How can this be happening right now? This turn of events happened so quickly, so unexpectedly. We all thought and wanted to believe we had more time. We felt we would have been able to say and do everything we hadn't spoken about yet. However, that Sunday afternoon, we had to say our last goodbye. With a heavy heart, our family is now preparing to lay her to rest.
A woman of great faith and generosity, our family remembers Della as the most giving and thoughtful person. She was always giving but never asking. At this time, we now hope with all our hearts to give her everything she deserves as we lay her to rest. We decided that sharing this with our family and friends would make it possible to offset as much funeral cost as possible. Any donations beyond our goal will be to assist our dad Gordon with any unexpected expenses. If you knew Della in any way, we would love for you to share any memory of her. We will utilize this platform to update all funeral arrangements as soon as possible. Thank you so much to everyone in advance for your love and support. Contribute
