Donations in Loving Memory of Paul LaRussa

Paul LaRussa was a husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and cousin; he was a friend, a neighbor, a mentor, a teacher, an artist, and an entrepreneur. Paul was many things to many people, but most of all, he was an optimist and a positive force in life.

In February of this year, a short seven months ago, Paul LaRussa was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He was given 3-6 months to live. He fought so hard, right to the very end, never giving up hope. His wife, Tove, remained steadfast by his side. On September 17, 2022, Paul passed away.

Married for over 36 years, Paul and Tove’s love transcends them; you can see it in their children and grandson. It permeated their lives together and could be felt by anyone around them.

These past seven months have taken a toll on the whole LaRussa family. The brunt of this hardship, which includes medical expenses and funeral costs, has fallen on Tove as she attempts to make sense of her new reality since Paul’s passing.

We humbly ask our loved ones and community to help ease Tove’s burden by donating whatever amount you can.

We are eternally grateful for the outpouring of love and support.
