Our beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend Heath Dilts suffered a catastrophic event last week: a cardiac arrest that has left him in a comatose state. Though he has made small steps toward returning to us, his road to recovery is still long and arduous. Heath will be moving to a long-term care facility in the coming days, at which point he will begin necessary, life-preserving treatment that is beyond his covered benefits.

 

In his 38 years, Heath has shared endless, selfless love and support to everyone in his life. He's the first person to be there for his friends and family in times of need, no matter the ask.

 

Heath has always found joy in celebrating life with others—whether it be playing pickup basketball, sharing stories with his grandmothers, taking trips down to the shore, or cheering on his Buffalo Bills. The love he holds for his mom, dad, four siblings, nieces and nephews, and countless life-adopted brothers and sisters is undying. We can't wait for the day when we can again hear his contagious laugh, and see his vibrant green eyes and debonair smile.

 

We have been giving Heath all we have, knowing well he would do the same for any one of us. Please help to give anything you can to help Heath in his long recovery. Proceeds will go toward medical bills and other expenses for his recovery.
