<div>Dear family, friends, and community,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We are reaching out today with love and hopeful spirits to ask for your support for a brave and beautiful boy named Colin who happens to be our nephew and Godson. If you know Colin and ever been in his presence, you know he radiates pure joy. Colin has recently been diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This diagnosis has turned the world upside down for his loving parents, Mike and Marisa and big brother MJ. In just a short time, life has shifted from school days, baseball games and family dinners to tests, hospital stays, and chemotherapy treatments.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Colin’s journey ahead will be filled with challenges, including intensive treatment and surgery. But we know Colin is <strong>unstoppable</strong> and we want to make sure he knows he’s not fighting alone.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Mike and Marisa are doing everything they can to be by Colin’s side every step of the way. As they juggle full-time caregiving, work, medical appointments, and the emotional toll of this diagnosis, they are also facing mounting medical expenses and unexpected costs.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We’ve created this GoFundMe to help ease that financial burden so Mike and Marisa can focus entirely on what matters most: helping Colin heal.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Any contribution, big or small, means so much. If you’re unable to give, sharing Colin’s story is just as powerful. Together, let’s rally around this incredible boy and his family and show them they’re not alone in this fight. On behalf of Mike, Marisa, MJ, and Colin, we thank you for your prayers, love, and support.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With gratitude,

</div>

<div>Ryan, Michael, Jenn, and Lina
</div>

Unstoppable Colin!

<div>One of our dearest friends, <strong>John D'Amico, has gone to be with the Lord suddenly &amp; unexpectedly due to a heart attack.</strong> John was a huge part of our lives and so many others. He was brave &amp; fearless, always ready to show the love of God to anyone. His biggest desire was to find a beautiful, Godly wife, &amp; he did. John and his wife, Danielle, devoted much of their time to feeding the homeless on the streets of Waterbury every Sunday faithfully.



</div>



<div><br />



</div>



<div>We are trying to help his wife and loved ones that he has left behind with the funeral &amp; expenses. <strong>Any amount helps. Let's come together and help this family out in this time of need.</strong>

John D'amico's funeral expenses

<div>Hi, this is Jenna. Last night, a parent and families worst nightmare came to life. My brother Jamie was notified that his two sons were in a very tragic n bad car accident.  His oldest son Alexander, who is 18 years old was the driver, his youngest son Anthony, who is 17 years old was the front seat passenger. They both had seatbelts on n it was a horrifically bad accident!! Alexander did not make it! He was pronounced at the scene. Anthony was airlifted by LifeStar to Hartford Hospital where he underwent surgery and is still in critical condition in ICU fighting for his life. I am asking for everybody’s help with funeral expenses for Alexander as he had no life insurance as well as for help with medical expenses for Anthony. It’s gonna be a long and treacherous journey ahead for all of us. If you can please keep us in your prayers and help in any way. On behalf of the entire Dillon family it will be greatly appreciated.

<div>We are completely saddened and heart broken by the loss of Ivan Jr., who passed unexpectedly, as he became terribly ill in a short period of time. This is an established fundraiser on behalf of his mother Diana, father Ivan, stepmother Ana,sister Ileanny, and family (with their permission).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ivan was known for his positive attitude and tremendous respect for others. Ivan attended West Side MS, he was in 6th grade. At just 12 years old he touched the lives of many who surrounded him. He was loved by everyone who knew him. He was a bright light in the world, and he will be missed by so many.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As you may know there are many costs associated with the passing of a loved one. We anticipate many expenses in the immediate future; such as funeral, transferring him to Dominican Republic where he was born and most of his family reside, and other costs associated with a memorial service, etc. Any and all contributions will be greatly appreciated during this difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you.

<p>Hi my name is Magdalena,  but Avery called me titi Tita. As you all know the Lord called Avery home yesterday August 28, 2021. After the tragic accident, we were all so hopeful that he’d recover but Gods plans were different. As we all know any services are costly. You may assist his mom, Stephanie Colón (not on Facebook) with burial expenses by donating. Service details will follow. Please note there are NO other authorized accounts for Avery. Keep his family in prayers. Bless you all.

Hello family and friends! While driving to work on April 2, 2021, my brother Ezequiel Torres 32 years old was involved in a serious incident involving an explosion. This incident resulted in substantial injuries including an amputation to his right arm, loss of vision to his right eye and burns to his face and body.  He is currently admitted to ICU at Yale New Haven Hospital. Ezequiel’s opportunities were just opening up as he had just graduated from Lincoln Tech a few months ago with a degree in HVAC and also started a new job with a company in Southbury.  He and his fiancé Natasha support their two children together. He will need help with medical bills, including the need for an arm prosthesis, therapy, and rehabilitation. Please help support my brother during this exceedingly challenging time.  Our family humbly asks that you donate to help with his recovery and medical expenses associated with his care.  Any donation amount will be greatly appreciated. PLEASE SHARE!!!!!

Help Ezequiel Torres Recover

Daniela Paternostro's Funeral Fund

<div>Our family is asking for your prayers and support for <strong>my nephew Tre, who is only 27 years old, and had emergency cancer surgery at UCONN yesterday Oct. 15th, to remove a large, orange-sized tumor. Unfortunately, when the surgeon went in to operate, the tumor had already ruptured and spread to other organs! </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For months, Tre has been in and out of hospitals, suffering from severe pain. Each time, he was sent home with pain medications, but with no answers. Every doctor he called had a long wait list, but he was finally seen by a specialist at UCONN, and we learned the truth: <strong>Tre has cancer, and the tumor has grown rapidly in a short period of time. </strong>
</div>
<div>The surgeon was so concerned that he canceled all of his other patients to perform emergency surgery. We were all praying that the surgeons would be able to remove the tumor completely and that it had not spread. So the news that it ruptured was devastating to us all.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Tre has always been a kind, humble, hardworking young man, who takes pride in earning an honest living behind the wheel as a CDL Driver. As a devoted Dad, his favorite pastime is spending time with his adorable, 3-year-old daughter, his twin and best friend. Now, because of this diagnosis, he's unable to work and needs time to heal and recover from the surgeries and upcoming treatments that follow. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Your donation will help cover his medical expenses, recovery needs, and daily living costs while he focuses on getting stronger. No amount is too small, every bit helps and is deeply appreciated! </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Businesses who wish to contribute will be gratefully recognized on this page and in our updates for their support. Please include your Business name with your donation. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you are unable to contribute, please help by keeping Tre in your prayers and please share this fundraiser with your contacts! The farther this spreads the more help we can get to a deserving person. ❤️
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Tre should be spending his days playing with his daughter, laughing, and making memories, not fighting for his life. Our family is believing in complete healing, strength, and brighter days ahead! Thank you for your love, kindness, and generosity.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Love,
</div>
