Lissie Melendez & Family
Donation protected
Lissie Melendez is a beautiful human being who has suffered a tremendous loss. Her 25 year old son passed away tragically in an accident that occurred during a winter storm on Friday March 2nd.
She is currently in Puerto Rico spending time with family, and making funeral arrangements. She will be off work for at least a few weeks as a result. She makes a modest income and she still has 3 children at home that she must provide for.
Her son Jonathan was a courier for FedEx Express and is survived by his wife and two small children who will also need assistance.
We are raising money for the Melendez Family so they don't have to worry about trivial things like rent and other bills during such a trying time. Help out if you would like, but please don't feel obligated to donate. All proceeds will go directly to the Melendez family.
