Recently, our beloved Uncle Vinny, an incredibly hardworking single dad, received the heartbreaking diagnosis of Stage 4 pancreatic and liver cancer. Doctors have given him a prognosis of up to one year. As you can imagine, this news has shaken our family to its core.

More than anything, Vinny’s biggest concern is his 15-year-old son, Thomas. Vinny has raised Thomas on his own with love, humor, and strength. Now, faced with the unimaginable, he's focused on making sure Thomas is cared for and supported when he no longer can be.

Thankfully, our sister Jessie has stepped up in the most selfless way possible. As a single mom herself, she’s opened her heart and home to Thomas and will continue raising him with love and stability—just like Uncle Vinny would want.

With Vinny unable to work due to his illness, the financial toll is mounting quickly. We’re starting this GoFundMe to help ease the burden on Vinny and Jessie. Donations will go directly toward:

-Vinny’s medical care and comfort needs

-Moving and resettling Thomas

-Ongoing support for Thomas

This is a heavy time for our family, and we’re leaning on our community to help carry some of the weight. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a real difference and brings us one step closer to giving Vinny peace of mind and Thomas a secure future.

From the bottom of our hearts—thank you for your kindness, your support, and your prayers.
