Lia Lee Coates Memorial

Donation protected
It is with great sadness we are asking for help from you to raise funds for the Coates family to memorialize Shelton's daughter Lia Lee Coates. 

On November 25th 2016 the Coates family welcomed a wonderful surprise, the birth of our twins Lia Lee and Mia Lee Coates. 5 short days after returning home from the hospital Lia's heart stopped. We did everything we could to rush Lia to the hospital and from that point on she remained in the NICU fighting for her life.

We never lost hope and stood by her holding her hand as she tried to stay strong.

Despite all of our prayers, Lia passed on to heaven on Monday January 2nd, 2017 at 8:23pm.  We believe Lia gave all of her strength to Mia, so she could grow and live a wonderful life for both of them. 

Thank you for any amount of support you can provide to help us memorialize our sweet Lia Lee to give her a proper celebration of the short life she lived.
