David Llord unexpectedly passed away leaving behind his partner Stephanie and two children Charlotte (almost 2 years old) and Anthony (10 years old) and his sons mother, who is also heartbroken,  Virginia. To say that we are shocked is an understatement and unfortunately, the family is not prepared emotionally or financially for this. They are shocked and saddened by this loss. If you know Stephanie, you know how much she helps everyone. It’s our turn to give back as they deal with the loss of  David.

Stephanie had specific needs we would like to help with as well as the costs associated with laying David to rest. At the time of his death, David was working to get their vehicle repaired and now, the need for reliable transportation is more important than ever. Any contributions are greatly appreciated at this time. 
 
We are raising money to assist the family with cost of travel. Stephanie had to pay to have her sister come be with her and cancel her flight to leave so she could stay a little longer to help with the kids. The loss of work means nothing is coming in at the moment to help with extra expenses . Charlotte and Blake both have birthdays coming up. Charlotte’s is October 23rd with Blake’s two days before that on the 21st. David has an outstanding cell phone bill that is going to be difficult to cover. With all that said any contributions that can be made will be helpful and appreciated. We thank you all in advance with anything you can do. Stephanie absolutely hates asking for help so I am (her sister) putting this together in hopes that she will have support when I leave as she navigates these next few weeks or months. She will likely be out of work this week again as she is struggling to get through these hard days, plus she is not prepared to leave Charlotte yet. So again, anything you can do will be greatly appreciated.

Give the gift of take-out. Seriously, the perfect gift for any situation.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it is take-out and everyone loves take-out. It gives your recipient the flexibility to order exactly what they want, when they want it. Pregnancy cravings are no joke. Neither is the stress level of a single parent on a school night. Young professionals who get sick often hate the loss of their own agency. The capacity to choose one's own dinner is not to be underestimated. Nothing says I love you like Pad Thai.
What To Express in Your Card: I wanted you to be able to choose your own meal. I am thinking of you!

This e-gift card allows access to all Walmart products. Useful for anyone anywhere.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it offers access to things like pharmacies when a family you love is in need. Many aspects of surgical care are not covered by insurance - these expenses can add up. This is especially true when a family is on a fixed income. Items like canes, walkers, surgical gauze, and more - can all be underwritten in this way. (Bonus: It respects, as well, the privacy and dignity of the person you love). Supplements that are doctor recommended (always check) can also be covered in this manner. Walmart also just has everything so for someone who has lost their job it enables them to get what they need without spelling it all out. People are proud.
What To Express in Your Card: You'd do exactly the same. xo
