Welcome to my blog. Here, I document my journey after the loss of my brilliant daughter Elira to suicide in January of 2018. I am learning how to breathe and be again without a large piece of my heart walking this world.
Thanks to all the wonderful family and friends who have already donated, we have raised nearly $15,000 for Elira’s scholarship fund at Western Carolina University. A yearly scholarship will be awarded to a freshman female student playing in the Pride of the Mountains Marching Band. We are very excited to remember Elira in ways that were meaningful to her.
