Karen Atkinson Memorial Fund

Donation protected
To everyone who may not yet have heard the news, my mom, Karen passed away on Tuesday, August 28, 2018.  Brett, Courtney and I were with her when she passed.  A few hours prior to her passing, we all shared some light moments, with mom instigating the jokes.  She was an amazing mother, sister, daughter and friend loved by all. She was a cancer survivor amongst other ailments she had and although her health was fragile, her death was sudden and unexpected and we are devastated.  

Anyone who knew my mom, knows of her life struggles with raising 3 children on her own.  We would like to give her the sendoff she deserves and to grant her wish by laying her to rest together with my grandmother, Mary, who was cremated when she passed in 2012.  They were inseparable and it would be a great honour if we can fulfill my mom’s wish. 

Given the costs involved as we all are aware, I would like to ask if you could please consider helping our family in shouldering some of the financial obligations. 

All donations will go towards the costs of cremation, an urn, the costs of a headstone and all other expenses associated with the interment of the cremated remains. 

Donations will be received by Craig Atkinson, with Brett and Courtney’s input.
