“My husband knew that there are so many critical ministries that are supported by government funding and that there just isn’t enough to cover everything. That’s why gifts like ours are so necessary. His plan was to continue to make a difference for the causes that he was passionate about and so after making sure that he had taken care of us (his family), he made sure to leave a gift in his will to LCFS.”
