Heroic man killed by lightning on Beach.
Donation protected
Hi everyone, I am fundraising for the family of Patrick Dispoto. Patrick Dispoto 59 years old died by lightning at Seaside Park Beach in New Jersey and Patrick was a Heroic man because he went into the ocean to warn kids about approaching thunderstorm Patrick and his girlfriend Ruth Fussell were starting to leave the beach but Patrick decided to go back to warn kids who were in the ocean at the time but it would be the last time that Patrick girlfriend Ruth Fussell would see him alive and then Patrick was struck by lightning at the beach and his girlfriend called 911 Nd EMS arrived and took Patrick to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. And the doctor said 45 minutes after the his brain had no oxygen they had to unplug him and I am creating this fundraiser for Patrick family and his girlfriend Ruth so they can pay for Patrick hospital bills and his funeral expenses and other financial things that they need help paying for and all of the proceeds will go directly to Patrick girlfriend Ruth and so Ruth can give all of the proceeds to Patrick family at this time and they are all struggling at this very sad and difficult time right now and thank you all for understanding this very sad time for Patrick family and his girlfriend Ruth and I can not imagine what they are all going through right now and thank you all.
