Hello my name is Dan. My best friend my brother passed away suddenly. He was only 38years old and a US Army disabled veteran. He suffered with PTSD along with TBI (traumatic brain injury). On the early morning of Christmas Eve his inner demons took control of him and he committed suicide. Leaving behind a wife and 5 children ranging in ages from 9-18. All the kids are still school. I have made this Go FundMe with his wife’s permission. She is a school teacher for the East Alton elementary school district and unfortunately she only gets paid once a month. If you feel so inclined please donate no amount is too small. I just want to make sure they don’t have to struggle financially on top of grieving the loss of a husband and great father. If you are unable to donate could you please at least share the post to get it to a wider audience.
