"Sharing is Caring!"

My American and Sicilian Family and Friends, All that knew and loved Nicola, will you show that you care by sharing some of your abundance with our family in need? Nicola was such a deeply loving, caring, Jovial man. He was a Winner in all our hearts but his last challenge was with a very tough opponent and we have all been heartbroken when he lost the game of chess with cancer. Collectively we have the power to provide some caring relief and financial help to Francesca and Antonio while they slowly find their way through the dark valley of grief. Nicola was just shy of reaching 55. And no matter how we try to understand, it never makes sense when the best of us are rushed off the playing field and snatched up by the original chief Coach. I like to believe Nicola was offered a higher position with a much greater purpose and he was the best candidate.  I am so grateful that I got to spend time with Nicola, Francesca, and Antonio, in late June. They all were wonderfully welcoming, hospitable, accommodating and as cheerful as they could be. Francesca was such a gracious, loving, wife, caretaker, mother, and sweet cousin. Now that Nicola passed I would like to do some fundraising in memory of Nicola and as a gift to Francesca and Antonio to help with leftover expenses. I found the "YouCaring" fundraising site that is now managed by "GoFundMe" If you choose to contribute here you can donate Anonymously with a credit card, quick and easy! Thank you for any contribution you can make. I like to think of money gifts as positive, green energy and when you freely give, you shall freely receive in return! Think of it as instant Good Karma, and think of me beaming from ear to ear in gratitude for your Caring enough to share with our Sicilian family. God Speed to all of you!
