On Feb. 21, Diane Harrell died in Grand Blanc, where she raised her kids and lived for nearly three decades. After struggling in the hospital for several months with her organ failure, she passed peacefully surrounded by her parents and five sons.

In the wake of her death, we are planning a memorial for her in the spring or summer months to celebrate her life with friends and family. Before we have the opportunity, we are responsible for settling her estate over the coming months. While we, her sons, are doing everything we can to handle this situation, factors outside of our control have made the financial aspects challenging. As friends and family have called and messaged asking what they can do for us, we wanted to give them the opportunity to help us honor her memory through keeping her home as beautiful as she's always kept it.

We will use these funds for repairs on the house, legal fees and estate planning. We're hoping to raise this money in the next 30 days, and will use any extra funds to purchase a small headstone for her gravesite and a small memorial tree we will plant in her honor in Grand Blanc. Anything left over will be saved for the family to use on a trip to Peru to scatter her ashes in the coming years.

Please keep her parents Terry and Shirley Gunter, her siblings Marc Gunter and Michelle Bricker, and her five sons Christopher (29), Cody (27), Matthew (25), Samuel (23) and Joseph (21) in your prayers as they traverse this difficult time.
