Help raise money for the Willis family

Donation protected
On August 18, 2020, Darryl Willis (aka “Pikachu”) was killed in Harvard Sq. after being hit by a tractor trailer while riding his bike. Mr. Willis is survived by his three daughters, his 7 grandchildren and his stepparents, siblings and nephews.

In addition to the loss brought on by Mr. Willis’ tragic death, his family is struggling to pay for his funeral and burial. In fact, three weeks following his death, Mr. Willis’ body remains with the medical examiner because his family does not have the funds to claim his body.

The Willis family contacted Dennis Benzan, who in turn, contacted me for help. I can’t imagine losing a family member so suddenly, and have that grief compounded by not being able to properly say “goodbye”.

In order to help this family, we are trying to raise $9,000 to pay for Mr. Willis’ funeral and burial. If you are able to help with any amount, please click below. Thank you all so much.
