Support grieving family who lost both & only sons
Donation protected
I never imagined myself raising a fundraiser. My name is Delphina and I was very close to my youngest brother, Desmond. I am blessed that I had brothers like Desmond and John, with whom I spent a memorable childhood.
Desmond and John were born in India, moved to USA in 2007, and became US citizens.
Desmond's motorcycle was struck by a truck in Warren County, New Jersey. He succumbed to his fatal injuries. The incident has attracted media attention and reports can be found in links below.
The Gomes family also lost their first son John L Gomes who worked for the US Army but passed away in 2015.
Ranjeet Gomes suffers from multiple ailments and has had several surgeries including that of stomach cancer, gall bladder, heart ailments, and ulcer. He currently suffers from hernia and also needs surgery.
Magdalina Gomes works as an assistant teacher at a day care center.
The Gomes family needs monetary help for the funeral service, hernia surgery, and to support the new baby. Desmond was working two jobs to meet the needs of the family. With his sudden demise, the family has fallen into grave financial burden. The money will also be used to partly pay for the mortgage of their home in New Jersey.
We hope many readers can show love to the Gomes family. Any contribution, big or small, will be highly appreciated. I also request you to share the fundraiser link so that many people can support. Here's the link:
