Devastation for the Doyle Family

Donation protected
Sadly on Saturday 21st of April one of the dads in our community, Ben Doyle  41, expectantly passed away.  He left behind his partner Beck and their three children, Judd (9) Jack (4) and Romy (almost 2).

Ben was a doting Dad who adored his children.  He loved nothing more than having a kick of  the footy with his kids,  watching Judd’s footy and cricket matches, watching the kids just grow and having cuddles on the couch with them and his beautiful partner in life, Beck.

Ben was a builder and took pride in his work.  In his spare time, he was in the process of extending their forever home, which he built 9 years ago.  A subdivision was planned.

In circumstances far beyond their control, the subdivision was stopped, they have been evicted from their home and need to vacate by the end of July.

Staying there at present is is not an option. So the family of 4  are temporally living in  Newport with Beck’s Mum and Stepfather in a very small home.  Not only is Beck now dealing with the loss of her beloved partner and trying to support her children, she now commutes  from Newport to the children’s school and Kinder in Cheltenham, spending three hours a day in peak traffic 5 days a week and for footy on the weekend.  This is exhausting for her and also costly.

Ben’s death  was so sudden and devastating.  He was the bread winner for the family. We need to provide Beck with some financial security so that she is able to house and support her family.

My name is Naomi Smith, my son is very good friends with Judd, Beck and Ben's eldest son, they go to school together and play footy for the same Club.  I live in Cheltenham and my family are part of the Cheltenham East Primary School and Panthers Junior Football Communities.  The donations we receive to assist Beck and her family, will go towards rent and the expense of moving into a new home for the family in Cheltenham to keep them apart of the community they love dearly.
