Impossible to access the crowdfunding page for Janice Lockamy?
Has the Janice Lockamy fundraising page been deleted? Even though I have the web address of the crowdfunding page for Janice Lockamy set up by Jennifer Eady a close friend, I am finding it impossible to access it. The internet address (URL) of the page takes me to the home page of GoFundMe.com and not the specific page. This indicates that the page no longer exists. Can that be true and if so why?
You can access a ‘cached’ version of the page (a version of the page frozen in time by the web browser) which shows that within 2 hours of the page being started it collected $1,250 out of a target of $5,000 (see below)

Are you having the same difficulties as me?
These are the words on the page written by Jennifer:
My dear friend and animal rescuer Janice Lockamy, age 60 was killed yesterday transporting kittens to their forever homes. She was the gracious lady that brought Vinnie and Minmae to me. Her husband Kent ( Frank) Lockamy was driving and was seriously injured. Janice also has a son by the name of Travis.
Janice has a lot of animals in her own home that are going to need to be rehomed, and this is just absolutely devastating to hear how such a beautiful and caring soul was taken from us way too soon. 16 out of the approximatly 19 cats accounted for in her car were tansported to Hernando Animal Services. There are still 3-5 missing cats and possibly injured and on the lose. Traps have been set to hopefully find these poor souls.
I am setting up a Gofundme Page as I post this and asked for a small donation from anyone that loves and has furkids. We now need to help this gracious family.
Janice was such a wonderful friend not just for humans but for fur children as well.
JANICE, YOU WERE AN ANGEL TRANSPORTING THESE BEAUTIFUL BABYS TO THEIR FUREVER LOVING HOMES YESTERDAY. NOW YOUR AN ANGEL HELPING THOSE CROSS OVER TO THE RAINBOW BRIDGE. PLEASE GIVE MY 9 KIDS A BIG HUG AND A KISS FROM THEIR MOMMY. AND TO JANICE’S FAMILY,
I’M SO VERY VERY TERIBBLY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. SHE PASSED AT WHAT SHE LOVED DOING MORE THAN ANYTHING IN LIFE.Janice never asked for a dime, never even wanted to accept gas money when transporting animals to their forever homes. When she and her son Travis brought Minmae to me I cooked them a vegan dinner. I love them dearly. She and her husband were doing this out of the goodness of their heart and certainly didn’t have the funds and that’s why I NEED every one of my friends to donate a few dollars. Please stay tune for the Gofundme Page in her honor. Thank you for your compassion. The same Janice expressed daily.
Jared at gofundme.com told me the fundraiser is offline right now because: “It looks like we are reviewing this campaign to make sure the Campaign Organizer is all set up correctly. The campaign link you have will be up and running again soon. Please check back in the next few hours to donate.”
Thank you very much for your comment. Another lady, Terri Wolfe also commented on this and you may wish to read her comment. It appears that there were problems with distributing the large sum of money raised. There was hassle and it was decided to close the account to avoid the hassle.
Are all of the personal cats still there or what has become of them?
It was said many/most of them needed vet attention.
To my knowledge, the husband/family threw out all the cats/dogs. Rescues, volunteers stepped in to take the pets. Nice family, right?
Thanks Novette.
