My name is Starla Smith, and I am seeking financial assistance for my mother’s cremation expenses.
My mother selflessly raised me after my biological parents passed away when I was young. She provided for me single-handedly on Social Security, despite significant challenges including her age (65 when I was 4), our remote location (30 miles from any substantial stores), and unreliable transportation. She consistently went above and beyond to help others, serving as an AA sponsor for 25 years and supporting numerous individuals. She instilled in me patience, compassion, and strength, and I am deeply grateful to call her my mother.
Due to current financial instability and lack of income, I am presently unable to afford the costs associated with receiving my mother’s ashes.
Anything and everything helps me so much in this difficult time. Nothing is to small and everything is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
