Support the Crowell Family in Their Time of Loss

Hi, I'm Alexis Crowell, the daughter of Molly and Joe Crowell. As most of you know, my mom just passed from a short battle with cancer. She had a clean bill of health in the spring and was gone by winter. She found out 3.5 months ago that she had stage 4 of a rare and unknown cancer. It took her really fast, and none of our family expected her to be gone so soon.

My mom chose to be cremated and for her ashes to be buried, which is not cheap. Her life insurance will not cover expenses because she got it after she was diagnosed with cancer, and the insurance company will not cover pre-existing conditions. I'm asking for help with expenses as the cremation alone is in the thousands. This will help take some stress off of our grieving family at this time. The funeral home doing the cremation is Billings Funeral Home in Elkhart. My mom did not want a funeral but asked to have a private celebration of life in the spring, in which a Billings Funeral Director will come out to speak. We are very grateful for my aunt that covered a large portion of the bill, but it was way more than any of us expected it to be. Anything helps. Thank you all!
