I just wanted to thank everyone for their generosity. Because of you we were able to give a nice floral arrangement to Ashley and her family, as well as give $100.00 donation to the American Cancer Society in memory of Brian R. Edney. After fees from this site, we ended up raising about $190. Thank you all for all of your support!
Brian was diagnosed with esophageal cancer about 4 years ago. He has undergone chemotherapy and a number of surgeries to help remove the tumors. He has been in and out of remission over the years, but his health started to decline after his mother passed away in 2013. The cancer had come back and gradually started to grow and spread to other parts of his body including his stomach. Brian was a true fighter, he SO badly wanted to beat this disease for his children and family and in memory of his mother. Through his decling health, his spirit never lost hope of beating this disease. Unfortunately, his bdy just became to weak to fight anymore. He was a wonderful man, a devoted father, and everyone's best friend. He welcomed everyone of Ashley and Alex's friends into his family like they were his own son or daughter. He will be truly missed! RIP Brian Edney, one of the greatest men I have ever known!
Christina and I would like to pull together a little sympathy basket for her and her family, including flowers from the chapter, a card, and maybe a gift certificate for dinner or something through this difficult time. Also would like to hopefully make a donation to the Cancer Society on behalf of Delta Zeta Kappa Epsilon. Any bit will help and please feel free to share with other girls in the chapter that we have missed!
As we all know Ashley is a private person. Please respect wishes to keep this Fundly off Facebook. Also until she posts on Facebook about his passing please keep it off Facebook as well.
Thank you all!
