Help the Yeager Family in a time of need

Dear brothers and sisters,

 

It is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of our dear friend Robert Yeager (38).   Robert passed away on Tuesday December 22, 2021 at St. Claire’s Hospital in Dover, NJ, due to covid-19 complications. He was admitted to the hospital on December 16th. On December 21st his health took a turn for the worst and was placed on a ventilator. Later that evening he passed away.

 

Robert was born and raised in Chester, NJ. He lived in Byram, NJ with his family. For a period of time, he worked for the Morris County Sheriff's Office: Bureau of Corrections as a Corrections Officer. He worked for the Morris County Communications Center as a communications dispatcher. As of late, he has been working for the Byram School District.  Robert was also a lifelong photographer.  He worked as a professional photographer for Anthony Ziccardi Studios in Sparta for twelve years.  He was father to three beautiful girls Caleigh (8), Shannon (7), Molly (5), and the loving husband of Erin.  He is also survived by his three sisters, two brothers, and his mother.

 

Robert was taken from us too soon.   In the meantime, his wife Erin is home with their three young girls, each trying to recover from covid-19.  To make matters worse, she recently received layoff papers from her place of employment as a nurse, effective the end of February of 2022.  This along with the sudden passing of her husband Robert, will cause a tremendous financial burden on her and their three girls moving forward.  She is now stuck with the burden of being a single mother of three young girls while trying to meet all of the financial obligations that they had as a family.  She will need financial help for funeral arrangements, bills, and to raise and support her children.

Robert was loved by all that knew him and will be missed tremendously. Our thoughts and prayers go to his wife Erin and his little girls, Caleigh, Shannon, and Molly.  Erin and her three children are all such valued members of our community- please help us rally together to show them how much we love and support them during these tough times and during this holiday season.  We can never bring Robert back, but hopefully we can help ease the financial burden that lies ahead.  If you are unable to make a donation, please keep the Yeager family in your thoughts and prayers. 

 

Thank you for your generosity.  God Bless, stay well, and Happy Holidays.
