Support a Headstone for Beloved Mother & Educator

Donation protected
Dear friends, family, and compassionate individuals,

Our family is raising money to provide a memorial headstone to honor and remember the life of a remarkable woman, my beloved mother, Mary Salzmann. Her passing has left a void in our hearts, but her memory will forever live on as a source of inspiration and love. My mom dedicated over 20 years of her life shaping young minds and nurturing the hearts of countless students. She was not just an ordinary educator, she loved to make things fun with her crazy hats, silly songs, and engaging activities.

As we reflect on the beautiful moments we shared with Mary, we also recognize the importance of creating a lasting tribute to her life. We kindly request your support in raising funds to provide a headstone at her final resting place.

Mary Salzmann was not just a mother, wife, sister, aunt, grandmother, and educator but also a guiding light, a source of strength, and a friend. Her unconditional love and support touched the lives of many, and her memory continues to bring joy and warmth to those who knew her. She believed in the power of education to transform lives and worked tirelessly to ensure that every child in her care had the opportunity to succeed. Her passion for teaching was evident in her unwavering commitment, patience, and kindness.

Unfortunately, my father is on a fixed income and is unable to bear the financial burden of a memorial headstone on his own. We humbly ask for your assistance in ensuring that my mother's final resting place is marked with a beautiful and lasting tribute that reflects her spirit, love, and the impact she made on all of our lives.

The estimated cost for a standard bevel headstone is approximately $6,000. This includes the design, engraving, and installation at her grave site. We understand that times are tough for many, but any contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in reaching our goal.

Your generosity and support will not only provide a fitting tribute to my beloved mother but also offer solace and comfort to our family during this difficult time. It will serve as a reminder of the love, strength, and resilience that defined Mary's life.

We kindly ask that you share this campaign with your network, as every share counts and can help us reach more potential donors. Thank you for your love, kindness, compassion, and for helping us honor the memory of my mother. Your support will ensure that future generations can pay their respects and remember the impact she had on our lives.

With heartfelt gratitude,
The Salzmann Family
