Please help Jessica lay her father to rest, a military vet

Hi, I am creating this fundraiser for a kind and caring woman who has known more than her fair share of heartbreak in her young life. She is one of my late niece's best friends and while we are still mourning that tragedy, after just recovering from a major health crisis herself, Jessica has now lost her father as well.

Please read the following from Jessica:

"It is with a tremendous amount of pain that I have to write this.

I never EVER imagined losing a parent, but losing my father has brought on so much agony and torment.

My dad gave his life to serve his country. Even though I didn’t know my father as deeply as I wished I did, what I do know is that he loved me, my mom, and my brother. He was a giver with a beautiful spirit and I wish we had more time together.

On April 22nd at 8:43 am, my dad took his last breath here on earth and now I am the one responsible for giving him the proper burial he righteously deserves.

However, three weeks before my dad’s passing, I suffered from a hemorrhage miscarriage and almost lost my life. My husband had to take time away from work to care for me and our children. Our finances have been very slim because of this, ultimately leaving us with nothing to spend on my dad.

I believe God when He says He is in control, I know He will make a way, and if you find it in your heart to even give a dollar to this organization it will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you."

Every share of this fundraiser will help to give Jessica and her family some much-needed peace, so please share as much as you can, and thank you in advance for every penny donated. It truly means so much.

Rest in peace, Jerry Herrera.
