The tight-knit community of Murray, Iowa, is shrouded in profound sorrow following the sudden and tragic loss of two beautiful young girls, Hadley and Laytn Mathes. This unimaginable accident has left a void that words cannot fill, striking at the very heart of our town.

We collectively wrap our arms in prayer and support around the grieving family: parents Zachary and Marti Mathes, and their daughter Gracie. The depth of their pain is beyond comprehension. We also hold in our hearts the teachers, classmates, and elementary students who shared in the light of these young lives. The days and weeks ahead will be incredibly difficult for all.

In times of such deep tragedy, practical support can be a crucial comfort. As the Mathes family navigates this overwhelming grief, the community is asked to consider ways to help ease their burden. This could be through financial contributions to help with unforeseen expenses or by providing meals to alleviate the daily task of cooking in the coming weeks. Gofundme
