The late Ian Smith was in Spain visiting his family when he unexpectedly passed away. His wife, Julie Anderson Smith, is facing significant financial burdens due to this sudden loss. Julie’s sister, Jane Anderson, and her husband had to arrange emergency passports and flights to support Julie and bring her back home safely, which has added to their expenses.
Joe-anne Siggery has organized a GoFundMe campaign to help cover these costs and any other expenses Julie has incurred. The fundraiser has so far raised £435 out of a £400 goal, with 20 donations. The community has shown support, with donations such as £10 from Charlie Marriott Hopewell and £60 from an anonymous donor.
Mike Fuller shared the sad news on Facebook, expressing the deep loss felt by Ian’s friends and encouraging donations to support Julie and her family. He wrote, "You may have seen my earlier post from the weekend where I shared the sad news that we lost a very dear friend… A GoFundMe has been set up to support the family with the costs associated with this sudden loss while he was in Spain and to provide support for his wife Julie… If anyone can spare a few ££ towards the cause, it would be appreciated."
This GoFundMe campaign is crucial in providing the necessary financial support for Julie during this difficult time.
