Memorial Fund for Kris Gladden Family

At the end of August 2022, our family received the news that no family ever wants to hear, Kris was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. With his typical fighter attitude, he began chemotherapy immediately, convinced that he could beat it despite the poor diagnosis and probability of survival. The next 5 months would be long, hard and painful.

Unfortunately, Kris experienced unanticipated complications and on February 3, 2023, he passed away peacefully in his home surrounded by all of his loved ones. His passing was unexpected and has left his family with medical expenses and funeral costs. This time has been and is going to be difficult enough to understand how to navigate without Kris. His presence and humor will be so missed and has left a huge hole in our hearts and lives. This fund is to provide assistance to Courtney, Hunter and Parker with any additional expenses related to Kris's passing and ease a little bit of the stress as they walk through this difficult time.

Thank you to those who have already provided support in the form of meals, love and support! It is apparent that both Kris and Courtney are loved and we appreciate it beyond words.
