Cancer is a really hard and sad battle for families. It really tugs at our heart when children have to face this road. Childcan is a organization that provides help to young families dealing with this horrible disease. We are also thankful for the wonderful staff at the Stratford Rotary Hospice. They are very loving and caring people. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations to Childcan or Stratford Rotary Hospice would be appreciated and may be made at LockhartFuneralHome.com.
