Support the Marnos after Loss of Loving Partner & Stepdad

Hello, my name is Suzanne Bergen, and I am fundraising on behalf of my dear friend Debbie Marno and her three beautiful daughters, Desiree, Destiny, and Danaia.

If you know Debbie, you know that she has the biggest heart and is an incredible partner, mother, friend, and colleague.

On November 1st, Debbie and her girls suddenly and tragically lost their beloved partner and stepdad, Martin Ruszkowski. Martin was the kind of man who made a mark on every person he met. His heart was made of gold, and his personality and laughter would fill the room. He shared his love fully and completely with Debbie and Desiree, Destiny and Danaia, and together, they formed a beautiful, loving family.

The family is devastated and is grappling with life without Martin. Understandably shocked by his loss, they are unfortunately not prepared for all that is happening at this time. Losing a loved one is always painful, but coping with a sudden loss can be especially difficult. There are also added financial stressors, such as the cost of planning a funeral and the loss of a spouse's income to pay for mortgage and household expenses

We'd like to show our support to Debbie and her family during this difficult time by helping them cover unexpected costs due to this sudden tragedy and give them a small leg up moving forward.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving, sharing, and praying for this family.
