Support Bill's Recovery and Tony's Memorial

Donation protected
On March 9, 2025, our dear friends and their family experienced an unimaginable tragedy. Holly and Leah lost their younger brother unexpectedly, while their parents, Bill and Shari, lost their only son. Tony was just 38 years old.

As they began planning the funeral and sorting through his belongings, another crisis struck. On Thursday morning, Bill woke up feeling unwell. Shari took him to urgent care, where they discovered he was having a heart attack. He was rushed to the hospital and underwent triple bypass surgery on Friday.

Bill is now recovering, but with both his healing and the overwhelming task of planning a memorial for their son, this is an incredibly difficult time for their family. The past week has been a whirlwind of grief and stress.

We want to help lighten their burden, which is why we are starting this GoFundMe. If you are able to donate, please consider doing so. All contributions will go directly to the family to help cover Bill’s medical expenses and the memorial fund for Tony.

Your support means the world to them. Thank you.
