Paying Tribute to Chris "Sterpher" Griffin

Hi, my name is Marcello Phillips, the older brother of Chris "Sterpher" Griffin.

Currently, Chris is in the Intensive Care Unit receiving treatment for a severe case of COVID-19. He entered the hospital August 5, 2021 for shortness of breath and within the next 24 hours was placed on medical ventilation in order to keep him breathing.

When Chris gets out of the Intensive Care Unit, he will be facing unimaginably large medical bills for his stay there. But once discharged, he will also need intensive physical therapy, which will only add to the financial strain.

He remains in the hospital today, and the doctors say that all we can do is wait. But we wanted to be proactive and not let this be another burden on his plate when he recovers. Thank you for anything that you can spare. We know how much Chris means to so many of you, and how much you have meant to him. Thank you again.

All funds received will go toward paying for Chris' medical expenses, as well as supporting his family during this very trying time.
