My Angel in Heaven

There is never a time where the loss of a loved one is ever easy. But imagine a sudden loss and not possessing the funds to provide a funeral or burial. Imagine having to park on a street corner with signs adorning your vehicle begging for help with the funds to bury your loved one. That is exactly what William had to do. When The Granted Wish Foundation became aware of the situation, we came to the rescue. We made arrangements to help cover the funeral cost so his wife could be buried without further delay. Though William's pain is deep, a heavy burden has been lifted for him. His healing process has begun knowing that his Angel is now in Heaven.

Dear The Granted Wish Foundation,

"Me and my family would like to thank The Granted Wish Foundation for their wonderful contribution to my wife, Patricia Leach's, funeral expenses. It is so nice to know that there are thoughtful and caring people in this world. My wife would have also been grateful that she was able to have a proper burial. Again, thank you so much for your kindness during these hard times."
