Jessie’s Memory Will Live On

Thursday 30th Apr
As many of you know I lost my beautiful Mom on Christmas Eve last year. She was only 46 years old. She was such a fighter and strong spirited person! My mom was my best friend and mom all in one. She was diagnosed with Scleroderma (Systemic Sclerosis) in late March of 2025. This disease took EVERYTHING away from her! Starting with multiple finger amputations, a toe amputation, a few feeding tubes, and many surgeries on her GI tract and extremities. She was hospitalized at least once a month for weeks at a time until her passing, but she never really complained. (Except about the hospitals food lol) She was the strongest but also most stubborn person I knew! In honor of my mom I’m asking for help with awareness and support for this disease that took my mom’s life. With Mother’s Day fast approaching, along with her birthday in mid May there’s no other way I can think of to better honor her memory and fight for this cause! Please if you can donate in anyway or even better join us for this event in June we would love to see you and talk about her memory! Thank you to everyone that donates, shares, or joins us for this event! 
With all our love,
The Horn, Morrow, Ferch Families 🩵🪽
