Donate in Memory of Aleksandra "Ola" Witek & Sons

On August 28th, 2023 worried family of Aleksandra “Ola” Witek and her two toddler sons, Calvin (age 1) and Lucian (age 3), urged authorities to check on their wellbeing after she had stopped responding to calls and messages and didn’t show up for commitments with her family. Upon the entry of the one bedroom apartment Ola shared with her fiancé and their children, authorities made the discovery that Ola and her sons were tragically killed.

Ola was an incredibly loving and devoted stay-at-home mom to her two young sons. Being a NYC school teacher, she instilled her knowledge and teachings on the growth of her boys who had blossoming imaginations and whose curiosity and sweetness to family and friends alike captured everyone’s hearts. A proud Polish mom, Ola shared her culture and language and made the lives of her boys bright and full. Her boys loved playing with their toys, story time with mom, and were two delightful babies to all that loved them. She was an adored friend, beloved sister to her brother Lukas, and cherished daughter of Grazyna.

As the family and close friends of the remaining Witek family members: Lukas, fiancé Emma Hutchison, and mother Grazyna (as well as Ola’s late father, Teddy Witek), we are heartbroken and incensed. Lukas loved his sister deeply. He was overjoyed in his role as uncle (playfully nicknamed “wujo”) to her two precious boys. He beamed any time friends asked how his nephews were and his love for them was palpable in conversation. Grazyna was a proud grandma, who enjoyed showering the young family with love. Her home is adorned with memories and photos of the sweet boys with their arms wrapped around her.

Lukas and Grazyna are now the only two remaining members of their immediate family, who are tasked with the unthinkable. In addition to funeral, burial, and legal costs, Lukas and Grazyna will be faced with additional, miscellaneous costs associated with this tragic incident. Our efforts are to collectively alleviate them from this financial burden.

We ask for your love and generosity during this hard time to help ensure that the Witek family has the proper means to say goodbye to Ola, Lucian, and Calvin as they so immensely deserve.

We thank you in advance for your generous donations, big and small, and for your compassion. All donations will go directly to Lukas' family.

Sincerely,

Family, Friends and Loved ones of the Witek family
