In memory of Mike Ronca

Tax deductible
10 years. It sounds crazy. Sometimes it feels like forever ago and sometimes it feels like he was here yesterday. Somehow we find a way to keep going on.

And that’s what Mikey would want us to do: to enjoy every day and every moment that we have together, to laugh, to do something unexpected and silly, and to be kind to everyone - family, friends and strangers.

Mike was so kind and good to everyone; it was impossible not to love him instantly. In honor and memory of his kindness, we would like to do a little good in our community and raise funds for Schenectady's Animal Protective Foundation (APF). Why APF? Anyone who knew Mike well knows how much he loved cats, especially Paw Paw (pictured below with Penny, our calico kitten from the APF). Paw Paw was his shadow and just one favorite cat in a long line of favorites throughout his life.

Our goal is to raise $777. That’s 111 $7 donations. If you want to give more, amazing! If you can give $1, that’s amazing too. All of the funds raised will go to the Animal Protective Foundation.

More information about Animal Protective Foundation (Apf): The Animal Protective Foundation promotes and protects the human-animal bond by providing resources to our community and humane care to companion animals. Our vision is a community where all companion animals are loved, respected and receive exceptional care. The Animal Protective Foundation is a full-service humane society providing services to Schenectady County and the greater Capital Region. You can learn more here.
