Little Bits of Honey Memorial Fund


The “Little Bits of Honey Memorial Fund” was set up to help parents, whose babies fall victim to SIDS, afford funeral, burial and grave site costs. As we are sure you can understand no parent is prepared to bury their infant and in many cases such a large expense is very difficult or even impossible. The average funeral costs alone are $2000.00, which does not include the burial, grave, headstone, flowers, prayer cards, etc. Parents are looking at bills totaling over $5000.00 + for the most basic service/burial. Parents are now not only left with the shock and devastation of their loss, but financial issues as well. The memorial fund will help with just this issue. The parents/families will be able to contact the fund to receive help with these costs. We know we cannot ease the burden of their loss, but we are sure we can help relieve some overwhelming heartache that comes with not being financially able to bury your infant. It is a very true reality that if the parents/families are unable to pay for the services, the babies are left with only a county burial, which in most counties due to limited land space, that is a county cremation.

Brad Wilkerson


In 2000, Brad Wilkerson decided to give back to the
places he first learned to play sports. Six years ago, Brad decided to have a charity golf tournament in Owensboro, Kentucky to help raise money for the United Way and the Boys and Girls Club of America. Through
his efforts, The Brad Wilkerson Charity Golf Classic has donated over $150,000 to these programs. Money is not all that Brad donates. While in Washington D.C., Brad became friends with a young man who was injured during the War in Iraq. Once he was released, Brad arranged for his new friend to throw out the first pitch at a baseball game.
