First I want to say how happy I am to know such a wonderful group of compassionate women. You have all made my heart glad. Thank You!

For those who are in the dark about this situation please refer to the following threads.

Here are my thoughts.
Many have expressed a concern to donate monies to a scholarship program or to the music department of the school etc. These are all wonderful ideas! But my first thought is to the surviving husband and family. Do they have the means for funeral expenses, medical bills etc. So, do you think that first we should be concerned with these matters and send our donations to the family so they can take care of what ever needs have come about at this time? Please either post your response or FM me.

What we at LIWeddings and NYCityWeddings would like to do is set up a special page that you can make your donations then we will match your donations up to $2000.

Let me know your thoughts
Ron and Liz

That's a wonderful gesture on your part and I agree, the money should definately go to the family.

Is there any mention of which funeral home is handling the services? They may have more information about what the families desires are. Also, is there a mention of what church/religious institution the family may be part of? They may also be a good contact point.
