Memorial Fund for Anthony Badillo-Maldonado

“It is both with heavy hearts and profound sadness we announce the untimely passing of Anthony Badillo-Maldonado. Anthony was a dynamic and kindhearted 29 year old. He was the eldest son of Judy Badillo and Rafael Maldonado.  Stepson to Joseph Gonzalez and also stepson to Shirley Maldonado. He was the beloved big brother to Brian, Alex, Aidan, Angelie, Isabella and Ramcher.  Brother-in-law to Savannah, Lauren and Keziah. His family was the most cherished thing in his life.  His warm, welcoming smile along with his loving disposition was truly all encompassing. His ability to spread joy was unmistakable. He truly left this world far better than he found it.

We are all in shock at the sudden passing of our beloved son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin, and friend. Anthony’s untimely passing has left a heavy financial burden upon his family. We are asking all who are willing and able to, help support his grieving mother and father. We are also asking for your support and prayers as we navigate through this tragedy and give Anthony the memorial he deserves. Although no amount of money can quell the sadness, we hope your kind gestures will allow for a smoother process for his family.

I am Anthony’s cousin writing on behalf of his mother, Judy. All donations collected will be used towards the funeral expenses. Any additional monies received will be donated to a certified mental health organization.

During this time of grief, we hold on to the words of our Heavenly Father, “Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be anxious, for I am your God. I will fortify you, yes, I will help you, I will really hold on to you with my right hand of righteousness.” - Isaiah 41:10.”
