Philip and Nicolena Stuczynski

Lucius Benjamin Richard Stuczynski was born on June 19 at 25 weeks. He lived his life as the ultimate preemie fighter in the Cleveland Clinic NICU. His parents, Phil and Nicolena Stuczynski fought alongside him, as did his sister Haylen. There were so many good days, so much hope, and so much love surrounding Lucius!! He brought together a community of family and friends who consistently covered him and his family in love and prayers. Lucius fought to the end, and he was loved to the end. Lucius went home to be with Jesus on November 3 at 4:55 am.  He is now living in Glory in our Father’s Kingdom! While we are confident that God has a plan for Phil, Nicolena, Haylen, and everyone who helped to send love and prayers to this family, it still doesn’t make it easy to accept this outcome. We want to continue to show our love and support to Phil and Nicolena. Please continue to pray for them daily, at 6 pm (our “Lucius time!”) or anytime throughout the day. This will not be an easy journey for them, yet their strength and faith in God is an inspiration and a steady reminder that Jesus can take us through anything. At this time, we are taking monetary donations so that we can help ease the tremendous financial burden that an extended NICU stay and a funeral has put on this family. Phil and Nicolena never ask for anything, and they do NOT know that we are doing this. If they did, they would definitely tell us to stop and that they don’t need any money, but let’s show them what a blessing their story is and help to ease some of their burden right now. Please consider helping them and please continue to PRAY!! God is covering them with His love and mercy, and we want them to feel that everyday! Please also keep this a secret, because we don’t want them to stop us, and we want to surprise them with this financial gift. Thank you for following the story of Lucius, the mighty fighter, and his family. His story isn’t over yet- this is only the beginning! ❤️ In much love, The Stuczynski and Husted families
