Support the Merito Family After Tragic Loss

Donation protected
Hello,
My name is Brian Merito and I am writing this on behalf of my entire family. Tragically, on June 4th, 2025, we suffered the unexpected loss of my father, Aquileo Merito. He was an amazing father to myself and his other sons and daughters. Throughout his life, Aquileo was proud of all his children. Even after suffering the loss of our baby brother, Lian, in 2017, our dad stood strong for the rest of his children.

Due to this loss, his younger children are now looking at a future without the sole earner for their home. My father worked his absolute hardest, but any funds gathered will go towards the funeral costs as well as to bridge the gap of losing his income in order to pay for home expenses.

Thank you all in advance. Funeral arrangements will be updated at a later time.
