Hey everyone,
As many of you already know, my father, Bill Doherty, passed away due to complications of COVID-19. The loss of my father is truly devastating and will have a drastic effect on my family's lives forever. This loss has not only affected my family and me emotionally, but it has left us in a hefty finical burden causing a new set of worries, challenges, and obstacles to overcome. I am currently caring for my 59-year-old mother, keeping up with bills, and feeding my family.
My dad, Bill Doherty, loved the people of his community as he was a volunteer firefighter for over 25 years for Edison Township. He often talked to everyone in the room due to his love for communicating with the community. He made everyone feel appreciated, even if he had only known someone for a few minutes. My father was a man of family, community, and baseball. He leaves behind a lovely wife and a son that loved him dearly.
My father loved attending sporting events and functions for his family members. At these events, his face constantly beamed with happiness. He was a proud husband, father, uncle, and cousin. He was very vocal about the love he had for our family. Bill Doherty wholeheartedly loved his family and supported them any way he could.
Those of you who knew my father know that he was a very devoted and loving person. Unfortunately, the gap that this left in our hearts will never be filled. My father has been deeply missed.
This fundraiser will alleviate immediate expenses and provide for my family and me. All money raised will go to bills, food, and anything else my family needs. Thank you for your time, prayers, thoughts, and support during the midst of dark times.
While momentary contributions in any amount are greatly appreciated, I know everyone may not be in the position to contribute at the moment. No worries, you can help by simply sharing this campaign.
