In January of this year Tommaso celebrated his 50th birthday. His home and professional life was thriving, a family vacation was booked to the Dominican Republic that included his lovely wife Ilbeka and their two children, Gerrado and Giada.  Their trip appeared to set the tone for what was going to be a wonderful year for the DellaSala family.

Sadly, all of their joy and happiness as well as their entire lives has been turned upside down.  On September 9th Tommaso was surprisingly diagnosed with Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer. Tommaso's immediate concern was not for himself, but for his family. 

The road ahead for the DellaSala family will be daunting. Unfortunately, none of us can ease the physical burden that Tommaso faces, but we can clearly help lessen the financial burden his family will encounter. Insurance will only cover so many of the expenses incurred by the aggressive chemotherapy treatments that he will be forced to endure. 

Tommaso is the sole provider for his family.  He had only recently accomplished a life long dream of purchasing a home for his family.   As the manager of Moscato's Restaurant Tomasso has been a fixture in many of our lives for almost two decades. His warm hello and embrace and a kiss on both cheeks has been synonymous with his consumate professionalism. 

Through our generosity we now have the ability to show him our gratitude and to help his wife and children during what is certain to be a difficult and trying time.  Tommaso's wife, Ilbeka Beato-DellaSala will receive the funds directly and she will use them to offset as many of the incoming medical bills as possible.  No donation is too small.
