Help Lay Patricia Ballard to Rest
Donation protected
Hello, my name's is Lyndsey Ballard. It pains me to have to do this again so fast. Growing up it was just my mother, sister and I. We were the 3 musketeers! She did her best as a single mother. Life had given us many mountains to climb, and it felt as though there was always a nother problem around each corner. But my mother always tried to make the best of every situation life threw at us. This past April 2024, the lord called my beautiful sister home to be with him... She was only 34 years old and a single mother of 4. Me, my mother, her 4 children, mine, our whole family was broken and pressed into a corner with trying to figure out how to pick ourselves back up again. My mother gave up her home and moved into my sister's home to take care of my sisters children. She put her whole house into a storage unit and stepped into my sister's shoes. She was the best grandma. She was grieving herself but still tried to keep it together the best way she could. Her grandkids meant the world to her! On December 27 2024, my mother Patricia Ballard joined my sister in heaven. I am sorry to ask for help again, but without you all there was no way I could have buried my sister and put her to rest. I unfortunately with Christmas just passing and being laid off work for winter break my funds are just about tapped. I would like to ask if anyone could please help me... They would consider donating. I want to be able lay my mother to rest. I will be having her cremated and want to do a memorial service for her as well. I will need the additional funds to help with packing up my mother's, sister's, and the children's belongings (2 homes worth of stuff). My mother was a diamond in the rough. She wasn't the easiest to get along with at times BUT she loved with her whole heart! She cared deeply about those she loved. She loved my sister and I so much. She loved her grandchild so much. She loved us all! I believe in my heart that she is at peace now. If we all come together as family and friends, we can take care of my momma's final send off just like we were able to with Tabby. I thank you all in advance. I'm am trying my best to be okay, but 2024 really beat me down. Prayers are so much appreciated as well. Thank you guy and please share this with all so that I can reach my goal and send my momma off with a beautiful funeral. I miss them both so so much. This is a very heartbreaking thing for my family. Again thank you all for your support.
