Fund for Widow and kids
Donation protected
A couple of weeks ago my brother was shot-dead by someone who tried to rob him while working. That night he made a pit stop along the road to get dinner to go and as he was getting on his truck he was approached by his killer who shot him, took his briefcase and ran off.
He was 51. He was loving and sweet. I'm not saying great things about him just because he was my brother, but because it was a fact that he was an excellent husband and above all father. Few people are like him. The world needs more people like him. Unfortunately, he is now gone.
Sometimes, I still tell myself "Is he really gone?" It has not been easy but as I tell my sister in law, She needs to keep going. She needs to keep fighting because she has three daughters that need her. Beyond our sadness, sorrow and desperation, I realize that I now have a duty to help them get through this not only emotionally, but also financially. This is why I'm starting this campaign. I'm hoping that I can raise funds to help my nieces and sister in law finish building their house in the Dominican Republic and make sure they are fed.
This was a horrible tragedy. Sometimes we hear about these things in the news. We realize they are happening everyday, but we don't realize that it can happen to us and how hard it is to deal with everything. I really hope you can help you. If you can't contribute financially, please share with others that may be able to. The whole family will be forever grateful.
My advice? Don't ever forget to tell the people in your lives that you love them and show them also. Sometimes actions are worth more than words. These are your priorities. Not your job, your clients, or your house, but your family. Don't ever forget it.
Please share this campaign, perhaps other people you know may be able to help if you can't.
