Every Parents Worst Nightmare


I had to take a minute tonight to post a heartbreaking story. A designer/photographer friend of mine lost her dear little boy yesterday. Nate was 4 years old and contracted H1N1 which turned into pneumonia. I have worked with Tracy several times on my marketing materials and so has my husband. She has had a terribly difficult year and now is facing the unimaginable, burying her child. The family is struggling with the medical and funeral expenses and would appreciate any help that can be given. Please, if you can give anything, or even just share this information with everyone you know, then we can help her and her family with what they need. The last thing on their mind should be how they will afford to give their son a proper funeral. A memorial fund has been set up in his name.

Donations can be made at any First Bank Branch or can be mailed to: The Nathen Stone Memorial Fund c/o First Bank P.O. Box 1047 Crossville, TN 38557.

You may donate directly to Tracy at sugarlimedesigns@live.com

Another way to donate is by visiting Designs By Jenn and purchase some of her FANTASTIC products. She is offering 100% of all sales to go toward helping pay for his funeral expenses and medical bills. She is doing this thru Friday.

From the Newspaper:

4 year old Nathan Stone passed away this morning at ETCH after battling the H1N1 virus. His visitation and funeral will be at Hood Funeral Home in Crossville. They now have a need for help with his funeral expenses on top of the utilities that are behind. If you can help or know someone who can, please contact Cathy Largent at 931-787-9358
