On December 12th our beloved cousin, Lauren Fiorito-Mitek passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind her husband, Marcin, and their two young children, Vincent (10) and Monroe (7).

Lauren was the heart of her family — a loving wife, devoted mother, and caring friend to everyone she met. She was truly a daddy's girl and her mother's best friend. Her passing has left an unimaginable hole in the lives and hearts of her family and friends.

As we navigate this heartbreaking loss, we are reaching out to our community for help. The donations from this campaign will go directly toward supporting Marcin and the children with catastrophic medical expenses, childcare, and ongoing family support.

No amount is too small — every contribution will make a difference and help provide some stability for this family as they adjust to life without their beloved wife and mother.

If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this page and keeping the family in your prayers. Your love, kindness, and support mean more than words can express.

Thank you for helping us honor Lauren's memory and uplift her beautiful family through this difficult time.

With love and gratitude,

Jamie Houdek & Kelly Thue
