Help Secure Future for Brendan's Young Family

Hi, my name is Catherine and I'm fundraising for the family of Brendan Bartel. Brendan died suddenly on

May 18, 2024 at the age of 38. Brendan leaves a young family, wife Danielle (Kistner ) and two daughters, Aliana (10yo) and Ellianna (8 months). Brendan's young family, parents, brothers, and extended family are heartbroken by his sudden death. The family will need to navigate the world without him, first line of business will be to secure health care coverage, since Brendan's coverage thru his employer will cease at the end of the month. The bills will continue to come in despite this time of intense grief.

Brendan was a truly loving and compassionate young man. Several years ago, he donated a kidney to his Aunt Maureen, SND and saved her life. Brendan was loved by his work family and those he served in Ashtabula County. I have been honored to know Brendan and his family, please consider helping them out in any way that you can.

In peace, Catherine
