Urgent help for unexpected expenses

On September 3rd, 2024, my husband, Robert Clinton Richardson, 53, of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, passed away in our home here in Hebron, Indiana.

In April 2016, I met Robert Clinton Richardson in Monroe, Louisiana.

On September 23, 2019, we were married in El Dorado, Arkansas.

We celebrated by camping out on the Ouachita River. We then went to Jackson, Mississippi, and eventually ended up back in Monroe, Louisiana.

One of Robert's health problems was osteoporosis and arthritis. But that wouldn't stop him.

Every morning, we got up and together worked till dark. We would get permission from different places to pick up their no longer used pallets. With the truck loaded, we then took them to a nearby pallet yard for our day's wages. We survived like this for some time. I also worked at a tuxedo shop in the laundry. We never went without, but it was a hard life.

Robert was the most giving person I have ever met. I have literally seen Robert take off his new jeans and give them to someone who had nothing. (Thank God he had shorts underneath.) Robert has taught me that giving is much better than receiving. And that is what I will always carry with me.

Today is a new day... One without my husband's financial contribution. Im asking for donations for help to get back to living and working. I have till Tuesday the 10th to get my only mode of transportation back. I then have to get insurance, plates, etc.

If I can at least raise $800 for that, that would allow me to continue working with home health. Without transportation I cannot serve the community and be self supporting. I just need that kick start to get me living again. Thankfully the Boone township trustee is willing to help after I fill out an application. Praying for manifested miracles

The reason I am asking for donations is to help me get my life back on track after the passing of my husband.

The help received will go to paying for basic needs.

Thank you, everyone, for your support.
