Please help support Kristy, Cora & Lily after Joe's passing

Donation protected
On July 4th, Joe Dulimba, a devoted father, husband, brother, and friend passed away after going unconscious in a pool at his daughter’s birthday party earlier in the week. This is something no child should ever have to witness, especially on what should have been a joyful day.

Joe leaves behind his wife, Kristy, a 4th grade teacher in her community, and their daughters, Coralyn (“Cora,” 12) and Liliana (“Lily,” 10). Joe was known for his warm smile, quick humor, and the way he’d greet you with a craft beer before you could step out of your car.

He was a true girls’ dad, always involved with their sports and activities, making sure they felt loved.

As they face this heartbreaking loss, Kristy and the girls are also carrying significant expenses: medical bills, memorial costs, and the challenges of adjusting to life without their beloved husband and father. All of the funds raised here will go directly to Kristy, Cora and Lily to support living expenses, cost of activities for Joe's girls, and future education.

Any donation or share makes a meaningful difference. Thank you for helping to ease their burden so they can focus on healing. And for surrounding this family with love and support during the most difficult time of their lives.
