Support Tiffany and Anna After Ben's Passing

It is with deep sadness that we share the sudden passing of our brother-in-law, Ben, at the young age of 40. He leaves behind two of the most important people in his life:

His radiant 2.5-year-old daughter, Anna, who was the absolute joy of his heart, and

Tiffany, his beloved wife and best friend of five years, a dedicated educator who has spent 20 years shaping young minds across Central and Southern New York.

Ben lived a life of quiet humility and unwavering service. As a Journeyman Lineman, he braved the harshest elements in Northern Pennsylvania, restoring power in the coldest and darkest of nights. His work brought warmth and light to families in their most desperate hours, a reflection of the care he extended to everyone around him. He was the first person family, friends, and coworkers would call for help, and no matter how busy or tired he was, Ben always found a way to give, with a heart full of kindness.

He was a simple man who found fulfillment not in material things, but in the love of his family, the joy of helping others, the beauty of the outdoors, and cheering for his beloved Buffalo Bills. His heart was so full of love and generosity that there was no room for resentment or bitterness.

With his passing, the world feels dimmer, in a time when we need all the light we can find.

I humbly ask for your support for Tiffany and Anna, to help lift the darkness that has been cast over them. Tiffany, a mother and educator who has dedicated her life to brightening the world, now needs our help to continue doing so for Anna and for all the children she touches through her work.

Any contribution, no matter how small, would be a blessing.

Thank you!
