Hi, my name is Timara Hernandez and I am fundraising to help my one and only Uncle Wink. His name is Vincent a.k.a Vinny a.k.a Wink. He spent the last month fighting for his life and boy did he put up a good fight! He was recently diagnosed with Leukemia within the short span of 26 days we lost him. Test after test, biopsy after biopsy, transplant after transplant and it just seemed like a never ending battle and as much as we are hurting we are at peace knowing he is at peace as well.

I created this GoFundMe two days ago and was originally asking for help with medical expenses. This is how fast we lost him. Now I am asking our family and friends for help with his funeral expenses.

His mother Sheila Costa has decided to have him cremated but we will have a memorial service as well as a viewing for everyone who has not yet said their goodbyes. We are planning on live streaming for our family back East. Who will also be doing a Celebration of life in Rhode Island, hopefully the same day.

As most of you know, this was extremely unexpected so the financial support is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for reading our story if you’ve made it this far. We love & appreciate you all!
