Mike and Nicole have been together for twenty years and have two wonderful children, Ethan (8) and Elysa (6).
Although he was the kids' shining star, he was fighting a terrible epidemic in the dark.  In the past few months it had seemed he won the fight and was putting it behind him.  He was there to make great memories with his family and again be the man Nicole fell in love with and married.  But sadly, the disease caught back up with him and took his life on August 12th.  Ethan and Elysa are now left without their Daddy while Nicole tries to pick up the pieces and take care of them the best she can on her own.  With the kids being so young, it will be a long road ahead.  If anyone would like to make a donation to help them, any amount would be greatly appreciated.
