Many of you know me through Bark Bath & Beyond, but over the years so many of my clients have become much more than clients — you’ve become friends and an incredible community around my family and me.
This week, my family experienced a devastating and unexpected loss. My brother’s children’s mother suddenly passed away, leaving behind their two very young children.
I’ve temporarily stepped away from some of my normal business responsibilities to be with my family and help however I can during these first incredibly difficult days.
We’ve created a GoFundMe to help with cremation and final expenses, food and necessities for the children, housing assistance, and the many unexpected costs that come with trying to create stability for two little ones after suddenly losing their mom.
I know times are hard for everyone, so please don’t ever feel obligated to donate. Even sharing this fundraiser would mean so much to us and could help it reach someone who is able to contribute.
To everyone who has already been patient with appointments, checked on me, sent kind messages, or offered support — thank you. I can’t adequately express how much it means to my family right now. ❤️
I will link the gofund me in comments if anyone would like to share or donate 💖
