Aspen's Celebration of Life

Donation protected
I am starting this page for a friend with a heartbreaking story. My dear friend Jen and I met in in the NICU 18+ years ago when we both had our first born children in there with life threatening respiratory diseases.
Jen's daughter Aspen Brook Calles was born on June 6, 1997 and had a very tough childhood. Her father left her within her first year and Jen was left to raise a sweet baby girl with such a big illness. Every day we had Aspen was a blessing and Jen prayed for her health and well being daily.
On April 29, 2016 God decided it was time for Aspen to come home. It was so unexpected and the loss has been overwhelming to Jen.  Jen is devasted as she was out of town when Aspen passed and had to catch an urgent flight home to say her final goodbye in the hospital.
Her exact cause of death is not yet determined but she stopped breathing in her sleep and while her Stepdad and paramedics tried to revive her they were unable to.
I have never done this before but given Jens very hard financial situation I thought I would reach out on her behalf and ask for any and all help to pay for Aspens funeral. I don't really know what a funeral even costs but I know Jen needs your help in every way.
Any contribution you could make would help in such a big way to lessen the burden on a Mom with a broken heart.
From the bottom of my heart please help this family out and they will be forever in your debt.
