Leah Piscitello--my cousin--is facing a heartbreak that no one should ever have to endure. In the span of just one week, Leah lost both her father, Dayne Piscitello, and her stepfather, Mark. While she is grieving these unimaginable losses, she is also caring for her young son, Emmett, and supporting her grandmother, Joan, who is deeply affected by Dayne’s passing. Leah has always been a humble, hard-working mom with a generous heart, and she would never ask for help herself. That’s why I am reaching out on her behalf—to rally support for someone who truly deserves it.

Dayne was a man of quiet strength and resilience, known for his love of building model planes and his deep ties to the Plymouth and Sheboygan communities. He leaves behind a legacy of kindness and determination, and his absence is felt by all who knew him. Leah is now handling the many responsibilities that come with saying goodbye, including making arrangements for cremation, obtaining death certificates, and placing newspaper notifications. These expenses have added up quickly, and the financial burden is overwhelming, especially as Leah manages everything for her family during this difficult time.

Any support you can offer will go directly toward covering these immediate costs and easing the weight on Leah’s shoulders. Our gratitude for your kindness and generosity is truly immeasurable. Thank you for helping Leah and her family find some peace and comfort as they navigate this incredibly hard chapter.
