I'm Laura Yandle. Since buying our older home in Smoke Rise, Tucker, we discovered an amazing plumber, Aldo Soto, who also lives in the neighborhood. He has helped us with complex plumbing issues at our unique house multiple times, and at this point, I consider him a friend. Aldo is one of the most popular people around because he is so skilled, kind, helpful, and fair in his pricing. You see him recommended in the neighborhood Facebook groups regularly.

Unfortunately, Aldo has been diagnosed with Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), formerly known as Wegener's Disease. He became ill almost two months ago and was thought to have pneumonia, but that was eventually ruled out, and he is now fighting for his life in the ICU.

As a small business owner, not being able to work for many weeks has been devastating, along with the emotional toll his family is suffering. It would be a wonderful show of support for his community to rally around Aldo in his time of need.
