Support for Phaedra’s Daughter
Kellyann has lived with her mother Phaedra for all her 25 years, sharing both the exciting and mundane aspects of everyday life. They kept up shared projects together at home and participated in many of the the same extracurricular activities. With Phaedra’s sudden passing, every aspect of Kellyann’s life has been impacted by abrupt and shocking change, and instability.
Please help support and encourage Kellyann to find her footing, while she navigates the grief of losing the person who was both her mother and a close friend.
"Phaedra has always been my primary emotional support. “Home” has always meant us being together."
- Kellyann

Both have been organized by Phaedra’s eldest daughter, Kim, in collaboration with Kellyann and for Kellyann’s sole benefit.
I, Kim, have been estranged and low/no contact with the deceased for 15 years and as such my only objective is to support and encourage my sister through her grief and to help soften this life transition for her.
