Burial Fund for Nicholas Giantonio

Nic was a gentle, loving, and overall beautiful human being. He was born to Milagros (Milly) Luna Hayden-Sterling and Larry Giantonio on the 7th of November, 1989. He grew up in Haverhill, MA with his mom and half-brother Derek Hayden, and later moved to Sandown, NH where he gained new family members Nelson, Giselle, Oscar, and Natalie Sterling. During his school years, he attended the Timberlane Regional School District where he made so many amazing and life-long friends. Nic was a huge Celtics and Patriots fan, and loved all the New England sports teams. Growing up he loved to play video games, collect Pokemon cards, and watch Dragon Ball Z. His love of video games continued into adulthood, where he spent many hours playing with his friends. Nic was also a music lover, always playing music wherever he went. Above all, Nic was a loyal friend, a genuine person, and a caring soul. He leaves behind his family and friends who love and miss him so dearly.
Nicholas is my cousin, and I grew up spending a lot of time at Milly's house. Although we were not the same age, his loss has been extremely hard on me. I cannot imagine the pain Milly is going through. In order to help her as much as I possibly can, I've decided (with her permission) to start a go-fund-me in order to help pay for the burial costs. As we know, burials are quite expensive and dealing with such a sudden and unexpected loss is a huge financial struggle for the grieving family, especially during a pandemic. I'm hoping to alleviate some of this stress for Milly. Any amount is greatly and deeply appreciated. All money will go directly to his mother, Milagros Luna Hayden-Sterling.
