In support of Brian and his family, I am giving you the opportunity to contribute to the funeral expenses to ease his financial burden. Last week he learned the news of his mother-in-law's sudden and very unexpected passing from the Florida police. He had to immediately pack up the family and drive from Chicago to manage the situation. As you know, he is the sole wage earner for his family and his responsibility is weighty.
If you do decide to provide some assistance, I encourage you to so so anonymously. There is fine line about asking for money in the workplace that I want to respect. Some of you have expressed a desire to give. Using the GoFundMe site enables people to give what want without judgment. This is set up for a small number of his closest colleagues so please DO NOT forward this GoFundMe request to anyone.
The money will be given directly to him to decide how it will best serve him and his family.
Thank you in advance for those of you have chosen to give.
Lots of love,
Jodi
