Our Monday was probably similar to most of yours. We woke up ready to tackle the week, the house was filled with the pitter patter of little feet and voices, the dogs barking happily to see all of us, the cats rubbing against us. We drove to work, did school drop offs and pickups, had play dates, did after school activities…. Tucked our little ones in and kissed them goodnight. It was a Monday. We have had so many like it and yet every minute, every second, of this one felt more important because we knew that a mother, wife, business owner, and friend was taken away from all the rest of her Mondays too soon. The school shuffle, the hustle, the work grind, the bedtimes.
We didn’t know Priscilla Jones personally, but we were customers. We see the community hurt from her loss. We mourn and pray for her children and husband who won’t get a normal Monday, or any day, with their mama again.
We want to help. We can’t make the loss easier, we can’t fill the void, but we’re hoping to ease some, any, of the financial stress that comes with the loss. We are launching a raffle, with all proceeds going to Mike Jones and his family. Tickets to enter the raffle are $25. You can buy as many raffle tickets are you are so inclined. The raffle will be good for use for one dental, with however many extractions your pet needs. This is a value of between $800-$2500 depending on your pets dental health.
To purchase a ticket please send $25 with your first name, last name, and cellphone number to our Venmo. If you’d like to buy tickets by another method, you can come into the clinic after Thursday to pay for a physical raffle ticket. The winner will be announced next week.
Attached is our Venmo to enter the raffle, as well as the family’s if you’d like to donate to them directly.
