Replacing Necessities: The Dillon Family

Hi, my name is Kristen and I am the niece of Jimmy Dillon.

On Saturday, 1/15/2022, my husband Frank and I waited outside of the restaurant where we had reservations to celebrate Jimmy's birthday. That celebration never happened. At 6:30pm, Jimmy called Frank to let him know he had just called 911 as smoke and flames erupted from his dryer. We were only 5 minutes away from Jimmy’s house, and within that 5 minutes, the house was consumed and destroyed. THANKFULLY, Jimmy was able to ensure his daughters and my 85 year old grandmother were brought to safety!!

They left with the clothes on their back! Jimmy did not even have his winter coat as his first priority was his girls and his mother. I am asking for support from our friends & family to replenish the necessities that were lost and help to get my family back on their feet again.

My family and I are forever grateful for the outpouring of messages and support since Saturday. So many have reached out offering to help. Please share this gofundme and consider donating. Your support and love means so much!!!!

Those who are not familiar/comfortable with donating online can mail donations. Please message me on Facebook for more information.

Thanks so much,

Kristen & Frank Pellegrino
