Wareham, Massachusetts – The family of David Ladd is grieving the loss of their beloved husband, father, and grandfather, who passed away on September 19, 2024. David was a devoted family man, described as a loving husband to Wendy Shulenburg and a wonderful father to their four children. He also cherished his role as a grandfather to their only grandson.
Wendy Shulenburg, David’s wife, recently organized a fundraiser to help cover funeral expenses. She shared that she had recently purchased life insurance, but due to the policy being too new, it will not provide the needed support for the family at this time. The family is seeking assistance to cover the costs of the funeral and is grateful for any help that can be provided.
The fundraiser, titled "Assist David’s Loved Ones with Funeral Expenses," has currently raised $1,100 out of a $5,000 goal. Donations have come from family members and friends, including Meredith Ladd, who contributed $500, and Gary Ladd, who donated $500 in two separate contributions. Melissa Kauranen also supported the cause with a $100 donation.
Wendy expressed her deep sorrow, stating, "We miss and love David to the moon and back," and thanked those who have already contributed to the fundraiser.
The family continues to ask for support as they navigate this difficult time and work to honor David’s memory through a proper funeral service. Anyone willing to help is encouraged to donate or share the fundraiser to assist the Ladd family in their time of need.
