The Bert Snelling Fund
Donation protected
At 4pm On Friday May 31st Bert Snelling walked into building two at the Virginia Beach Courthouse to get a building permit. There Bert would be one of the first people fatally shot during yesterday’s cowardly mass shooting. He was the only non Virginia Beach employee that lost their lives.
We know that Bert was immediately safe in the arms of Jesus but he will be deeply missed here on earth. We are raising money to help his widow Sonja with funeral costs and to supplement the income that she will no longer have.
Bert was courageous, kind and he loved his wife and Jesus deeply. During this difficult time our hope remains in Jesus and his gift of eternal life.
Please keep this family in your prayers as they navigate this new life.
“While I wait
I will not be afraid
My faith will remain all the same
My hope in the things not yet seen
Found in the greatest of these“- Hillsong
