Hi, my name Lori, and I am a close friend of Joe's and Naura's cousin.

Joe could really benefit from your support.

About 7 months ago Joe was diagnosed with Cancer. Significant treatment efforts have been unsuccessful, and his condition has worsened. His cancer has metastasized; stage 4.

Joe had just started a new job he loved, and they loved him. His medical condition deteriorated quickly. Just weeks into this employment, he was unable to work due to his pain and accelerating illness. Thus, eventually losing his job and insurance.

Joe has been in and out of the hospitals due to many complications. Currently he requires 24 hours a day inpatient care. His new insurance coverage does not cover all the care and treatment he needs. He has exhausted his finances trying to cover what his insurance won't cover or doesn't.

With the support of anyone willing and able, I am asking for friends and family to step in and help bridge the financial gap so Joe can receive the care he needs and the cremation he has requested.

My hope is to be able to let Joe and his loved ones cherish their precious time and enjoy good memories and not have to worry about finances.

Please support Joe anyway you can. Every penny is worth more than you can imagine. Joe will be eternally grateful for your compassion and generosity.
