My name is Cristy Ford. I am raising money to pay for my mother’s funeral expenses. She didn’t have any life insurance and her death was sudden and unexpected. My mother went in to have a bowel obstruction removed and never came home. Her body developed septic shock and she passed away. She didn’t have a lot of close family left; most have passed on or live elsewhere. All the expenses are on me and my daughter to get paid, and we barely get by, so we are struggling to get this paid. I can’t even get a ride to the funeral home to pick her ashes up. If anyone needs to verify before donating, contact Ponders Funeral Home in Dalton, GA. They will let all donors know nothing has been paid yet. Please help if you can.
