Sta Rosa Family Fund

On the first day of school last year, August 17, 2019,  Teodore Sta. Rosa a.k.a.Teddy suffered from a bleeding stroke on both sides of his brain at his work place. It was inoperable and left him in a vegetative state,  dependent on a respirator and feeding tube.  He was then placed at Alden Estates of Barrington.  Last Saturday, August 22 at 9 am, his wife (my cousin Vannessa) got a  phone call from the nursing home that they were doing CPR on Teddy. My cousin  and her eldest daughter rushed to  the nursing home and Teddy passed away when they got there. At the same time, their youngest daughter's First Holy Communion was going on. 
   Teddy came to this country in 2006 from the Philippines with his wife and daughters. They settled in Wauconda, IL.  He was a hard working nurse, a loving husband  to Vannessa and a caring father to his three daughter's Athea (17), Aevianne (16), and Alezandra (9).  He was also a great friend.  He was only  53 years old.  A life gone too soon.
   Due to his state of health and condition his benefits at work got terminated. His wife and kids were left with funeral expenses that were unexpected. In behalf of his wife, I would like to ask for a little contribution from friends and family members to help his family pay for his funeral expenses. Teddy 's visitation was last Wednesday, August 27, 2020, and cremation followed thereafter. His wife will be in charge of the final expenses.
