Help Diane rebuild her life.

Dear friends and family members,

I am writing to you all today to let you know about the loss of our dear friend, Gene, Molinaro, Diane’s beloved husband. So many of you have asked "what " you can “do” to support Diane, during this time of devastating sorrow. Gene was so very special to us all and we wish to honor him by helping Diane. I have taken it upon myself to create this fundraiser to help Diane rebuild her life.

Gene passed away on September 17, 2021, after battling Covid pneumonia for 16 days. “Gene’s Celebration of Life” will be on October 15th at 3pm, at Newport Beach Yacht Club, 1099 Bayside Dr, Newport Beach, CA 92660.

Gene’s obituary can be found here: https://everloved.com/life-of/eugene-gene-molinaro/

We are absolutely devastated by Gene’s passing and Diane is struggling to find the funds to cover her living and business expenses. Here is a breakdown of all the costs involved to get Diane back on her feet:

I’m sure you can understand that Diane wishes to stay in her home and business location and not experience a very disruptive move that will encore enormous moving and relocating expenses.

Because Gene outlived his life insurance policy, Diane has no financial cushion that would have given her time to grieve and set her life in order, instead, she is faced w a 3 yr. lease on the house at $4K a month, along with all the household expenses. Diane needs her rent covered immediately.

Her business expenses, and 2K per month rent, needs to be covered as well for 4 months-until she can start generating income at her office. Diane is dedicated to her cliental that she has nurtured for these past 18 years and looks forward to seeing them all.

Most of all, Diane’s friends and family, and the life she shared with Gene, and made so many loving memories are here in California.

Please consider donating if you can. We are so very grateful for every donation during this difficult time. We wish to thank you in advance for all your loving kindness and support. It is gratefully received.

With love,

Mary G Schmidt
