WePay Cares: Bowling Fundraiser to Pay Funeral Costs | WePay

By Jenn Escalona

A senseless tragedy ended the lives of Bernadette Jaccard?s daughter and two grandchildren two months ago. Jaccard?s daughter, Mary Catherine, a special education instructional aid, was found strangled along with her two kids in their home. It was believed to be the work of Mary?s boyfriend, who later killed himself.

During horrific times like these, it?s tough to find any sense of solace. However, Bernadette has found help from her friends, family and community. Particularly, they want to help with all the expenses incurred from her family?s burial. The death of a loved one is surprisingly costly, and always tough to deal with when you?re still reeling from their passing.

So to help counter these expenses, the South Bay community and Big Brothers and Big Sisters of San Diego County have put together ?Bowl with the Angels Bowl-a-Thon? to help raise funds. It takes place today, Saturday afternoon from 5 to 7 PM at the Brunswick Premier Lanes in Chula Vista. All proceeds go to the Alvarez Family Memorial Fund, and you can buy tickets at their WePay Donation page.

If you?re not in the area or just want to help the family by giving money, then click the button below to go to their general donation page. There you can give as much or as little as you want. WeFamily, let?s help Bernadette have faith in people again and give her some peace of mind during this turbulent time in her life.
