Candace Russell funeral costs

Hi, My name is Fred Russell Jr and I'm trying to raise funds for my sister Candace Russell's funeral costs. My sister passed away from a 15 year battle with an autoimmune disease on December 29th 2022. Candi was diagnosed at a young age with this horrible disease and was stripped of her young adulthood. When she was diagnosed she was working her way up in Petco while also in her last semester of massage therapy school. While in massage therapy school she took a special interest in forensic science and planned on continuing her education in that field of study. Candi was always such a caring person and would help anyone out even if she went without. The last 2 years of her life she lived in a nursing home and developed amazing friendships with the residents. Even though she was suffering from her illness she became an advocate for the other residents and was voted the president of the community of residents. It brought her joy that she was helping others that couldn't help themselves. I believe this was a blessing because it kept her driven towards something and we got another few years with her here with us. This unexpected tragedy has left my family in need of help. We are normally not ones to ask for help but in this instance we are in need. Since my sister was sick at a young age she could not get a life insurance policy. This has left a huge financial cost on the family that we were not prepared for. I know times are tough for everyone but if you can afford to give we would be greatly appreciative of your generosity. With any remaining funds after the funeral expensives are paid we will be donating the money to autoimmune research foundation in hope to find more answers to this disease. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for at least reading this little biography on my sister and if you donate thank you very much.
