Saying a situation is close to home is an understatement. Please send up all the prayers as my cousin, Stefano Gargano, is one of the deputies fighting for his life right now in the ICU after a tragic call while on duty as a Lake County Sheriffs Deputy.

On Friday, August 2nd Stefano was critically injured in the line of duty. Another officer was also injured while a third has tragically passed away.

We ask that you pray for Stefano’s healing, his medical team, our entire family but importantly his parents, sister, and girlfriend. Pray for the other officers involved and their families as well for their healing and those who mourn for the officer lost.

This is the official GoFundMe to help aid in Stef’s recovery as it will be a long road. Any support provided is greatly appreciated. We thank you in advance for all of the prayers, the kindness, and any support you can give.
