Dear Family, friends, neighbors, work colleagues of Bill Foote and residents of the Parsippany community,

FIRST, Susan Giordano, Daniel Gaestel and Delia Petrula, friends of Bill have organized this gofundme for Bill Foote. His illness in the prime of his career impacts his future plan for his children Billy and Rebecca realizing their goals in completing college. Bill will have medical, illness and assistive technology bills over and above insurance coverages. We want to help with that, too. Please consider donating to this fund. Your GIFTS will go directly to Bill and family to help with these expenses. 

NEXT, please read below the words of Delia Petrula, asking you to support Bill, her very good friend:

 TODAY, our good friend, Bill Foote, needs your support! As many of you know, over the years, Bill has donated his time to numerous organizations. Many of you know Bill from the countless hours Bill has spent on the Parsippany Football fields, selflessly helping to shape the minds and bodies of young men. You may recognize Bill from his participation in the Parsippany Christmas parades where he has been Santa to many, many children throughout the years. Bill has also mentored young accountants new to the field with his employer, Bruno, DiBello & Co., L.L.C. Maybe you recognize him from his association with the Cherry Ridge Gun Range where he is a member. After losing his beloved Alaina in April of 2013, Bill joined the Soaring Spirits Widow/Widowers Group. Bill quickly became well known in the group, someone you could turn to for advice, a shoulder you could lean on day or night. Today, one of the group’s favorite Bill phrases “my friend” resonates throughout the Wednesday dinners & Facebook comments. Memories of Christmas parties where Bill volunteered to dress as Santa and surprised the crowd along with his elf helper, KDD will NEVER be forgotten. Recently Bill was diagnosed with ALS.  ALS is a rapidly progressive, fatal neurological disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing muscle nerves to die and affecting voluntary muscle movement. For years, Bill has been an inspiration to many, many people with his uplifting spirit and great sense of humor.

NOW, Bill needs YOUR help to ensure a great future for his two wonderful children. Rebecca is studying at the Parsons School of Design in New York City and Billy is studying at County College of Morris.

PLEASE, take a moment now and help Bill the way Bill helped so many in the past. Your generosity is greatly appreciated by Bill and his family.
