Help me help Amy Grace’s husband and family

Donation protected
Hi my name is Kirsten and I have been friends with Ian since middle school and Amy Grace since high-school when the two of them met. Ian tragically lost Grace recently and I’m raising money to help with her funeral expenses and arrangements but also the medical bills he has in her passing.

The family wrote this to share with you all:
”To our Friends and Family. It is with great sorrow that we ask for your prayers for our family. Our precious Amy Grace Gary Whipple died this past week. She had suffered from fainting episodes, and seizures since her teen years. Also, she was diagnosed with heart irregularities about the same time, she passed away from a massive seizure and hemorrhage in the brain that the doctors said nobody could have prevented. She married the love of her life on July 8th and was the happiest we've ever seen her. Her husband was home when Grace went into Cardiac Arrest and had a Brain Hemorrhage. She was dead on arrival at the hospital. Grace had expressed wanting to be a Body Donor on her Drivers License and to her husband, Ian Whipple. Grace was under the care of an organization, Life Link, who worked to save her organs for people who need them. That's who Grace was. She was a compassionate, caring, loving and unselfish person who loved people, animals and most of all, God. Grace was an Irish Dancer when she was young, sang in the University Chorus in Athens, and sang in our family’s outdoor drama last year and this Labor Day weekend. She is one of the many young people who "grew up" in the drama. She loved it and it made her so happy that she could sing this year in spite of the fact that she had just gotten better from Covid. We are sure that Amy Grace is dancing, singing and worshipping in His Presence tonight. We are grateful for the assurance that she is with our Lord and Savior, Jesus. We know that her physical heart went to a child that has never spent a day outside of a hospital, has never felt Sun on their face and our Gracie wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.”

Please, help. Medical expenses, funeral costs, home finances, etc is the last thing a grieving spouse or family should be worried about.
