Galvan Hardships

Donation protected
In the last three months, Richard Galvan has had two incredible losses. His grandson, Dee was killed in a tragic car accident and not even a month later, his wife Rita was diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer. Rita went into the hospital the weekend before Christmas and was there until February 6th before going to Hospice where she passed peacefully surrounded by family and friends. Richard was admitted into the hospital on Sunday, February 9th with medical conditions of his own. Richard has been unable to work the last 4 months as he has spent every moment by his wife's side. Anyone who has had the pleasure of knowing Richard would tell you that he is a passionate, caring, family-oriented, and an all-around hard-working man. Richard usually deals with the loss of his family members (in previous years) by throwing himself into work and keeping busy. However, this has been more difficult in recent months due to the close proximity of these two family members' passings. Richard has asked to have a go fund me set up to help with paying for two funerals plus hospital expenses for both Rita and Richard, any support you can give would be appreciated.
