Charmaine McNease - A mother, sister, & friend

Dear Friends, Family, and Supporters,

Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on blessings, praise, and offerings. On Thanksgiving Day

(November 23, 2023), I received devastating news. My beloved sister, Charmaine Lovette

McNease (42) passed unexpectedly. She and I had just spoken less than two hours before her untimely passing. Lives were suddenly and forever changed.

Charmaine leaves behind her pride and joy of a son, Joseph (11). Joseph will continue to be

cared for by Charmaine’s stepmother, Teresa McNease. Joseph expresses that he misses his mommy and wishes to say goodbye to her. On behalf of Joseph and the McNease family, I’m raising funds to make proper arrangements for our beloved Charmaine.

How we got here. Charmaine suffered through many chronic health conditions and unimaginable life challenges. However, she was not defeated. She remained a fearless, kind-hearted, and unrelenting warrior. It is acknowledged that the holiday season is here, making it a financially stressful time for many. Please know that your monetary donation/offering in any amount is a blessing to us. All funds will go directly towards Charmaine’s cremation/memorial expenses and supporting her son, Joseph.

Unfortunately, Charmaine did not have life insurance.

May God bless you, again and again.

Sincerely,

Michael “Gaits” McNease

UPDATE as of 12/14/23

Dear all,

Through your kindness (prayers, words of encouragement, and donations), a direct cremation service was provided for my beloved sister, Charmaine McNease. From my heart to yours, thank you for easing this heavy burden. May God bless every one of you.

As a next step, a family and friends’ memorial event will be organized in remembrance of Charmaine. Donations are still being accepted to fund the memorial and to support my nephew (Charmaine’s son), Joseph. Joseph will celebrate Christmas and his 11th birthday later this month. We hope to do something special for him during this season.

The details (date and location) for Chamaine’s memorial will be announced by the end of December 2023. All those who knew, loved, and supported Charmaine (including Joseph and the McNease Family) are invited to attend. Thank you.

Warmly,

Mike “Gaits” McNease
