Wanda Belle Children's Fund

No doubt most folks have heard the news about the tragic murder-suicide shooting on Seminole road last Monday (May 17th). Here are the stories as printed in the Galveston Daily News:

This tragedy has touched the lives of four young children in the most terrible way. In an attempt to bring some relief to these unfortunate kids, the neighborhood has started a benefit fund at Moody bank to make donations to their aid. The children are being cared for in the custody of family members who will receive 100% of the funds donated to be used exclusively on behalf of the children. The details of this benefit were printed in the GDN Friday edition:

This tragedy happened here in League City, so please consider making a donation.


The official announcement of this fund from GCPHOA President Scott Freudenberg follows:

Glen Cove Park HOA and the homeowners of Glen Cove have opened an account at Moody Bank to benefit the children of Wanda Belle. " Although they lived in our neighborhood for a short time, they were still residents, and the recent tragedy has touched the hearts of our neighborhood and the City of League City." " The HOA has been swamped with requests to help the children in some way and we decided this would be the best way to make sure they at least have a chance to carry on with the loss of their mother." "We would ask that anyone who has a $1 or more to spare donate to this fund and help these children." " Moody National Bank has generously reached out to be a part of this and help us in our effort." (SF QUOTE)

The children are as follows
Jackie , girl, age 13
Mateo , boy, age 8
Claudia , girl, age 6
J.J. , boy, age 3
