In February of 2023, my Uncle Vic lost his beloved wife, Fran Sorrisio. The following year, in 2024, he faced another unimaginable loss when his daughter, Ariana Sorrisio Sanford, passed away. Arianna is survived by her husband, Adam, and their 13-year-old son, Nicholas as well as her sister Victoria. Victoria currently lives in Florida and is doing everything she can to help and support her family.

Just last night, on December 9th, tragedy struck again when their home was engulfed in a fire. They managed to grab what belongings they could, but now they are left without a place to call their own.

The fire took most of their possessions, including cherished items that held precious memories of Fran and Arianna. To make matters even more heartbreaking, their beloved cats are missing, and we are doing everything we can to find and rescue them. This family has endured so much trauma and grief in such a short time, and now they are faced with the overwhelming task of starting over.

We are raising funds to help Uncle Vic, Adam, and Nicholas get back on their feet. The support will go toward providing clothes, replacing essential housing items, securing a temporary home, and helping with the rescue and care of their missing cats. Any help you can offer is deeply appreciated as this family tries to rebuild their lives after so much loss. Your kindness and generosity will make a world of difference to them during this incredibly difficult time.
