Support Penelope and Izzy After Jim's Passing

Donation protected
On November 14, Jim Spiker passed away after several years of illness - leaving behind his wife of over 30 years, Penelope Benvenutti - and their teenage son, Izzy Spiker.

Besides being a devoted husband and adoring father, Jim was a fixture in his beloved skating community and was committed to expanding his artistic endeavors.

This loss is incalculable for his family, and has left them in an extremely compromised financial state - as Penelope has also been battling stage 4 cancer this year.

Anyone who knows this family knows that they are the most warm and generous people you could ever hope to meet and that they have always exemplified the most genuine spirit of family and friendship - they truly never met a stranger.

So I'd like to take this opportunity to help support them in this devastating time.

Any contribution is vastly appreciated and will go toward expenses directly related to Jim's passing (cremation, etc.) and to help Penelope and Izzy with household expenses as they navigate this loss (and loss of income, as well).

Thank you so much for contributing and showing our friends the love and support they need in this unfathomable time♡
