Most recently Dale's husband Nick was diagnosed with a serious illness.  Nick will be starting treatment on January 6th  that will last through March and is going to be responsible for a ton of medical bills, traveling expenses, and of course their every day expenses. For those of you who do not know the Rippo's they are a loving family of 4 Who reside in Lindenhurst with two young sons. Dale has worked effortlessly within Alleghany Ave School volunteering Whenever needed while Nick is out of the home providing solely for his family. They are the kindest, most loving, and generous people we know.  As their family begins this battle they need our support and encouragement. They would give you the shirt off their backs. I am asking everyone to donate if possible. No amount of money is too small. Every bit counts. Please help show your support. . I cannot explain how humble and appreciative this family will be.  Thank you.
