Patrick Rizzo Jr Memorial Fund
Donation protected
On the morning of 5/18/2023, my sister was awoken to a knock from police telling her to go to the hospital, her son was being transported. A whirlwind of trauma, hard conversations, and questioning what happened is a small fraction of the pain this family has endured. After stabalizing and testing, the family was informed that it was a fatal wound and survival was not likely.
Patrick James Rizzo Jr. was the light of my sister's world. The bond they had is like no other. He was always her baby boy. To see the amount of pain that was in my sister's eyes as she attempts to comprehend the incomprehensible, is devastating.
Patrick passed away on May 20th. His memory and spirit will live on through all those that knew and loved him. Though our prayers for a miracle went unanswered, Patrick will be a donor. Our heartache will be a miracle lifeline for someone else. It's a little comfort in our tragic time.
I am setting this fund up to help my sister and brother-in-law with final expenses. This is strictly to support those needs and anything beyond that goal will be given to the family to support their needs.
