Brian Newman, the husband of my beautiful friend, Francisnelli (known by her friends as Tuca) Bailoni, passed away suddenly last week. Tuca is one of the strongest people I know as she has faced much loss in the past few years, including the loss of her beloved dog Teddy. I met Tuca as she is my dog walker, and she is one of only three people I trust to take care of my dog. She is committed to caring for animals, fostering and volunteering for an animal rescue here in LA. She has been left as now the sole income provider, and we are raising funds to support her paying rent, counseling fees, funeral costs, etc. Any amount you can donate will be greatly appreciated.
