From Cary Weiner (Larimer County Extension Director) and the Larimer County 4-H Team:
As you may know, one of our 4-H families was involved in a tragic car accident on Wednesday, June 7. 4-H Leader Kate Ulam was lost in that accident, and her son David McConnell suffered injuries but is recovering. Community members have started a GoFundMe site for the McConnell family and for the Ulam Family for those who would like to contribute. Community members have also set up an informational blog for updates on David. For those in need of support, we are aware of one mental health resource through the state of Colorado, but there are likely others available.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks you to donate to either the Livermore Wranglers 4-H Club or the Larimer County 4-H Foundation in honor of Kate’s memory.
If you would like to donate to the Livermore Wranglers, please make your check out to:
