Matthew Palaia's final expenses

Donation protected
As many of you may have heard, My 30 yr old son passed away on April 11th at 8:25 pm from a Heroin overdose that caused his heart to stop for at least 45 minutes on Thursday April 6th. The paramedics did CPR & were able to get a heartbeat.. My wife & Matt's brother, Chris rented a car & Hotel room through Monday.. However, On Sunday his mom, Helen, and sister arrived for the bad news that Matt's brain was without oxygen for 45 minutes & there was no chance for recovery.. We opted to donate his organs that could be donated & any of his organs that could not be used will go to Hartford Medical Center in CT for educational purposes. We have a GOFUNDME page set up to try to alleviate some of the expenses for his remains to be returned to his family in PA... The Police and the Medical examiner are both involved, But that won't bring him back, However it may prevent the next family from feeling & dealing with this garbage that we all know Sucks.. On a good note.... Matt's Kidney's saved a 36yr old female & a man in his 40's.. Thank You all in advance for your kind words & any & all financial support is & always will be appreciated
