"Sid embodied values that I will spend a lifetime trying to emulate - humility, optimism, resilience and an unfeigned faith in humanity that was impervious to personal adversity."

"Sid was a great guy with a great laugh and a smile for days. Caring, thoughtful, funny, curious. Everything you’d want in a caregiver."

"Selflessness. Of all the qualities I knew from 5 years working with Sid, the one that stuck out most was his unfailing generosity and habit of putting others first. I simply never heard him ask for anything for himself."

On Friday, May 26th, our friend Isidro (Sid) Linton suffered a serious medical emergency. Sid was transported to an area hospital where he is currently receiving treatment in the Neuro Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

Since 2018, Sid has contributed a significant amount of time helping others through medical emergencies as a volunteer EMT with the Bethesda-Chevy Chase Rescue Squad and as a professional EMT in Maryland. This time, it is our turn to help Sid and his family through his long recovery.

As Sid’s friends and coworkers, we are gathering together to raise funds to support him and his family. Sid is one of the primary financial providers for his family. These funds will be provided to Sid’s family to assist with meals, transportation costs, childcare, housing, as well as other incidentals so that they can focus on supporting Sid through his recovery.

Thank you so much for donating. Please share this fundraiser if you are able to do so.
