Support for Kandra’s 3 Daughters

The purpose of this funding is to provide support to Kandra’s three beautiful surviving daughters.  We will be using this funding to help with the girls day to day living costs. However, we have also created the MermAID Alliance (foundation) where we will create fundraisers and events to keep the funding coming through the families childhood.  Thank you all for your donations, the family is extremely grateful and could not maintain a normal lifestyle without you!

Obituary -

There once was a lady who could walk into a room and grab everyone’s attention with her vivacious vibe, engaging eyes, and sweet smile. Kandra was an energy that you could feel the moment she was in your presence. It is with the deepest sadness that we notify those who had the pleasure of feeling her energy and those that never will, that our mermaid Kandra unexpectedly left this land for bigger seas on Monday September 19th, 2022.  

Kandra LaNae Thydean was born March 1st, 1988 in Roswell, NM to her father “Papa G” (Graham Potter) and her mother LaNae Potter (who she joins in heaven). She had a light and a smile that brightened our skies and turned our oceans vibrant aqua like the color of her eyes. She passed on her infectious smile and light to her surviving beautiful daughters Teryn Lanae (14), Lila Grace (9) and Brighton Mary (8). She loved her daughters more than anything in this world; they are her heart walking outside her body. They have a piece of her with them always. She also loved life. She helped so many people climb out of dark places with her light. She always saw the good in people, even strangers, and made them and others see it.  

Kandra had a love for so many things; beaches, breezes, tattoos, and we cannot forget mermaids. Her energy and excitement will be missed greatly by all her family and friends. How she always pushed herself and us to dream big and always enjoy the journey. 120%  

Not only does Kandra leave behind her parents and daughters, she also leaves behind Said Zokhrouf, Chase Thydean, Will Bruening, Christy Lunde and the countless others whose lives she added love to.  

Sadly, we all have angels in the sky and now we have our angel in the sea. May you Rest In Peace, mermaid.

The money here will be used to make monthly payments to her surviving daughters (3) counseling and child support activities. I will deduct a monthly amount until the funds are exhausted.
