Headstone for Ryan and Taryn Bartlett - in Loving Memory

Hi everyone, my name is Jordan. I am Ryan and Taryn's sister.

This has been a long time coming. I have decided to try raise funds so that I may finally get a headstone for my brother and sister.

My big brother Ryan Bartlett sadly passed away on July 4th 2006 at the young age of 26 years old. My family had intended to do an unveiling for him 1 year later.. alas this never happened. Fast forward 10 years and tragically my little sister Taryn Bartlett passed away at a very young age of 19 years old on July 28th 2016. She too never never received a headstone. They both now rest at North Shore Memorial Park at Schnapper Rock, Auckland. What little is left of my remaining surviving family have long separated and live overseas. We have lost touch with one another over time and seemingly left the past in the past.. it has been a long hard and painful road of tragic events for my family.

With that said, I remain here in New Zealand alone and it has bothered me ever since I can remember that my siblings still do not have a headstone at their grave. It brings me sadness each time I visit them that they have gone so long without one - it has been 17 years since my brother passed and 7 years since my sister passed. My siblings deserve a headstone. Unfortunately I cannot afford to provide one for them myself so I have decided to let go of my pride and ask for help to make this happen. Please help me get a headstone for my siblings, it would mean the world to me, to us.
