Will Roberson's funeral expenses
Donation protected
On Thursday March 23rd, my brother, known as Billy by his American family and Will by his Italian family, passed away at the young age of 55 years old. I am 5 years younger than my brother and by the time I was 5 years old, I knew that, he knew exactly what he wanted to do with his life. He was a performer and would perform for anyone, anywhere. Like any of us, he could get angry or be a bit of a “Diva” at times but he always wanted to be the one up front, in the middle of the stage, who could bring joy, to anyone who saw him, he wanted all who did, to forget about everything going on in their lives and just absorb the love he put into every performance.
In the very early 2000s Will moved to Italy, he went there to do some shows and simply, never came back. He was in a place where the great people of Italy, truly appreciated him and were so responsive to his performances that he never wanted to leave. He found a new home in Italy. While there he did show after show after show and met some of the best people in the world. Others who performed and wanted, just as much as he, to spread joy and love through their performances. They became his family and by extension, mine as well and I am truly grateful for all of you, he loved you.
Will arrived back home to Connecticut last week, he had been very sick and we all hoped that he would recover and start a new chapter of his life. Unfortunately he passed just a week after his arrival and as we are grieving, we’re also faced with the expense of the funeral arrangements, as there was no insurance to help pay for them. It is my intention to have my brother rest with our mother Barbara who passed in 2011, for this I need help. As much as I do not like asking for help like this I will for my brother, if you can, any help would be greatly appreciated, every cent helps and ALL funds collected will be used for the purpose stated.
Thank you in advance and may God bless you.
