For Mrs. Parise, in memory of Frank

Donation protected
On Tuesday, April 25, 2017, Francis A. (Frank) Parise, Jr., passed away leaving behind his beloved wife of 34 years, Ruth Parise.  Frank and Ruth met while working at Kmart and fell in love.

Mrs. Ruth Parise has been a teacher at Laurel Ledge Elementary School in Beacon Falls, Connecticut for 28 years.  Throughout those years, Mrs. Parise, with Moo-Moo's help, has loved my children and countless others as her own as she has taught them to love learning!  She greets each of her students with a warm welcome, sending notes home over the summer and writing letters of praise when students read to the class.  She greets all the families with a smile and praises their children and their efforts in the classroom.  She welcomes parents and grandparents  into the classroom to help out or read to the class because she knows it takes a village.  Now, it is our turn to send her a smile and be her village.

For those of you who knew Frank, he wasn't well for many years.  He visited countless hospitals and doctors over the past 12 years and Ruth is left with an overwhelming amount of medical bills.

Please consider donating to help Mrs. Parise provide her beloved husband with a proper good-bye and support her at this difficult time.   Any amount of donation to help us reach our goal is greatly appreciated and I thank you for your consideration.  All donations will go directly to Mrs. Parise.
