My friend Wally was a wonderful person who touched the lives of everyone around him. His sudden passing has left a huge hole in the hearts of his partner Lori and their 8-year-old son Joey. Wally was a devoted father and partner, and his absence is felt every single day, especially by little Joey, who misses his dad so much.

Lori is now facing the unimaginable challenge of supporting herself and Joey on her own. The financial strain of covering rent and daily living expenses has added to the emotional burden they are already carrying. I am starting this fundraiser to help ease some of that stress, so Lori and Joey can focus on healing and finding their way forward without worrying about immediate bills.

If you are able to contribute, your support will go directly toward helping Lori and Joey stay in their home and cover essential living costs. Every donation, no matter the size, will make a difference for this family as they navigate such a heartbreaking time. Thank you for considering a gift to help them through this difficult journey.
