Love Offering Charity Fund Raising for Sharon French
It was heart wrenching yesterday to hear that one of the much well respected Steemian has passed away on 28 March, 2020.
It was even more saddening when we got news from @happycrazycon that she left the world with hardly anything left, used up her cash to buy medication and now, left with full of debt that needs to be cleared.
@iamjadeline has been one of the closest contact to her in Kuala Lumpur and has been silently absorbing whatever liability that Sharon might have owed, from utility bills to rent even; and if you have followed her stories before, you will know she too has so much on her plate to handle especially her younger son has health challenges.
Therefore we have decided try at least raise some funds here in order to lessen the burden @iamjadeline is facing, juggling between Sharon's old place with the landlord and her family who's now the food truck business is effected during MCO.
If you could, spare a few steem, to help Sharon one last time...
Till now we have no news of the whereabouts of her son and her siblings she gave contact to the Embassy; and while Jadeline (and another close friend of Sharon) patiently waits for the news, they have to deal with all the bills and cleanups.
So far the place Sharon (@fitinfun) stayed, if you have read her blogs before, you will know the place was not in its best condition and she was too weak to have it sparkling cleaned all the time. During her stay at the hospital and her travels, her deserted place has turned quite topsy-turvy and the landlord, even though knowing that she has passed, is no longer able to absorb the cleaning service charges, and there's still an outstanding rent that hasn't been settled.
All in all, Sharon @fitinfun needed about 200 USD (1420 STEEM at present exchange rate) just to settle rent and utility bills, and no one could access to her Steem account to power down to settle the bills at the moment.
(All her belongings are currently locked up in the hospital until the next of kin comes to reclaim her body)
Therefore, we would hope that any kindhearted steemian would be able to donate a few steem at hand as her final gift - from the community.
Presently, the Daily Bread Food Bank only have this about of liquidated funds while all are locked up; and all these will be donated for @fitinfun's passing.
We hope to reach 1420 STEEM so that we can help her one last time, as the loving community she knew and came to love.
How to help?
- Send to @gtpjfoodbank account with the Memo: "in Memory of Sharon"
- Comment here in case we haven't check our wallet. It's a little hard to access to the Steem wallet these days.
Unfortunately with recent retraction of support of @fundition, we no longer have much to help liquidate everything for Sharon to help her; therefore every STEEM you can spare would be of great help.
All the STEEM will be converted into MYR later and will be transferred to @iamjadeline to help settle Sharon's outstanding bills.
We would like to thank you in advance for your time of reading this, your donations, and your thoughts for Sharon's family.
We would also like to thank @happycrazycon for keeping @littlenewthings updated, and once again @iamjadeline for all she had done her best to help Sharon during her life in Kuala Lumpur; last but not least, the Hospital Kuala Lumpur for doing their best to treat her until her last days.

I am in complete shock at this news of Sharon's passing away. Not only is it hard to live in a foreign country, i can only imagine how hard it was to die in a foreign country as well. She was a good friend to many in the steem community. She'll never be forgotten.
Thank you for your kind words of Sharon. We are happy to hear that she left something such significant in the hearts of many in the Steem community.

I have supported Sharon in the past and hope 300 Steem will help . they are now transferring
Thank you for doing this. And thank you to everyone that donates. Fitinfun was an awesome person. She was very kind and really smart. I'm gonna miss seeing her posts and chatting with her on Discord. Her son lived with me for awhile, about a year ago. I contacted him to let him know.
Thanks!
Relieved to hear you have made contact @derekricharson
Thank you @derekrichardson for reaching out. We are racing against time here to find her siblings or her son to call the Canadian Embassy in Malaysia. We are not certain how long will the hospital is willing to keep her body there; because of the COVID-19 infection outbreak is still ongoing in Kuala Lumpur.

Btw, isn't @bxlphabet her son's account?? He was active just two hours ago....
Yes. He is. I believe that @derekrichardson was getting a hold of him.
👍
We believe it could be steem auto; because her account was also active.
