MaiYer's Medical & Funeral Expenses
Donation protected
On July 15th, 2017 we received a call that our beloved sister, Mai Yer, had been stabbed in the chest during an armed robbery. Mai Yer was out celebrating her 31st birthday with friends in downtown Minneapolis and what should’ve been a night of celebration turned into a tragedy. Mai Yer has always been very strong willed and it showed when she fought for her life over the next 11 days. Unfortunately she succumbed to her injuries on July 26th, 2017.
Mai Yer loved life and lived it with unconditional love. She would give the shirt off her back, making sure others were provided for even if she had little to offer. She made sure to include everyone and this made others feel loved and important. She knew exactly what to say and do to make you smile and brighten your day. Her selfless, loving and caring ways brought so much joy, love, and laughter into everyone’s lives.
Mai Yer was an incredible mother and leaves behind a son who was the apple of her eye. He was her first priority and the driving force behind her success. As a single mother she made a lot of sacrifices so she could provide the best life for him. It’s no surprise Mai Yer’s son adored her in return. He’d often cradle her face in his little hands and ask for kisses. Anytime he was away, he made sure to facetime his mom to tell her how much he loved and missed her.
She is so much more than what we can say. Her time here was too short, and we are all heartbroken she has been taken so tragically from us. She will be truly missed, and we will cherish the memories we’ve made with her.
We’ve set up this fund to help pay for Mai Yer’s medical and funeral expenses. Remaining funds will go towards supporting her son as we know this is what Mai Yer would have wanted. My family and I will ensure that once the campaign is over, the funds will be withdrawn and used appropriately towards Mai Yer's medical and funeral expenses.
Thank you,
