A little help for our friend Renee Heri-Taylor

As many of you know, on Wednesday, April 3, 2024, our dear friend and neighbor Renee Heri-Taylor suffered a devastating fire to her historic Keyport home. The basement took extensive heat and smoke damage, now compounded with water damage from the valiant efforts of our local Keyport Fire Department, including Lincoln Hose and KFD ( along with surrounding town FDs) to save her home.

Renee is well known in our Keyport Community. Whether you’ve seen her walking our neighbor dog Kelsey around town, working with the Keyport Garden Club on town beautification for our downtown planter pots, or helping at the GardenWalk guide table, or have seen her participating in many of the fun social events in town, or have appreciated her fun annual Halloween Yard displays. Renee has been a vibrant, funny, and kind element in the fabric of people who make our town a nice place to live. Renee has created an intricate network of friendships over her time here in Keyport, NJ, and she really needs our support at this difficult time.

We have created this fundraiser as a way for people to help and give back. Renee and her two beloved cats, Gigi and Teddy, are currently displaced from their home, and for the foreseeable future. Any donation will greatly help them during this difficult time.

Please consider donating to help them get back on their feet.

We thank you for keeping Renee and her well-being in your thoughts.

Kindly,

Donna Rondinelli-Price and Xan Yanosh

On behalf of Keyport Garden Club, we thank you for your kindness towards someone who has always given her time to our community.
