Gabriella Bonham who is 16 years old and is a resident of El Reno Oklahoma never met Diana Sweeney who lived in Oklahoma City asked her nephew Rick Ingram weeks before Diana passed away in July 2022 at the age of 69 years of age to have her 2016 Volkswagen Beetle given away via a raffle to anyone who attended her funeral.
Rick Ingram and his cousin Suzanne Singleterry made an agreement to have the wishes of their aunt come true.
The cousins asked the local news media to spread the words to honor their late aunt's wishes.
When Gabriella found out through the local news media reports that a raffle would take place for anyone who attended the funeral of their late aunt. Gabriella and two of her older siblings and some cousins attended the funeral of Diana, Gabriella found the experience very meaningful than she ever imagined.
After Gabriella filled out her raffle ticket, she found one year later that she won the Volkswagen one year later after the estate of Diana was settled so that the raffle could be held on September 15 where Gabriella won the auto.
Gabriella who was with her relatives to Oklahoma City to get the car that she won at the raffle.

I am in agreement with you that Diana who was a God fearing Christian did donate her auto to someone who needed one after Diana passed away.
