My sister, Kolleen Bennett (Rybicki), has experienced a tragic loss. Her husband, Mike, killed himself Thursday. His actions, which we will never understand, have left Kolleen emotionally and financially devastated.

Kolleen has always dedicated herself to the homeless and those in need for many years. She is months away from completing her Masters degree in social work. As many of you know, Mike and Kolleen purchased an old farmhouse on several acres of land. She is now left with the entire responsibility of its upkeep.

Although the love and support from family and friends will help her emotionally, the financial burden continues to be real. I am starting this GoFundMe account in hopes that it lends some relief to her current and future financial situation.

Contributions of any amount would be truly appreciated. Please keep my sister in your thoughts and prayers, as well as all of Mike's friends and family that have also been affected by his death, as he was loved by so many. Thank you and god bless.
