We are heartbroken to share that early Sunday, November 24th, Ellen and Mike Stevens and their son Danny experienced an unimaginable tragedy. They lost their first-born son and brother, Ryan, in a devastating car accident. Ryan was a shining star and an old soul. He was a beloved son and brother, grandson, friend and so, so much more. This is every parent's nightmare. 

 

During this most difficult time, we want to come together as a community to offer them love and financial support as they navigate their immense loss. Our goal is to provide monetary relief so Ellen, Mike and Danny and extended family can just focus on grieving their son/brother.  Ellen and Mike are both public servants and serve and give so much to our community. Ellen has also just recently fought breast cancer which has also put a financial strain on their family. We want to make sure that they do not have the extra burden of worrying about anything financial and can take as much time off as they need. 

 

Any amount that you can give will make a difference. Please join us in surrounding the entire family with generosity, prayers, support and love. If you are unable to contribute financially, we ask that you keep the Stevens family in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you for your kindness, generosity and support.

We aren’t even sure where to begin, but we are going to try…

Though we are broken to the core of our beings and moving forward without Ryan, is still so inconceivable, to say that we are touched beyond belief by the kindness and generosity of our people from New England to Florida, is an understatement. The love that we’ve felt from hundreds and hundreds of people is mind blowing. Thank you doesn’t seem like enough. We appreciate every dollar, every card, every text, and every prayer sent our way. I hope that everyone of you know that it means the world to us and it will never be forgotten.

Ryan was the BEST kid, the most responsible, smart, goal-oriented, motivated, kind, generous, and genuine kid. He didn’t deserve this ending to his life that was truly just beginning. It’s a reminder that life is precious and no one is promised tomorrow. We will never understand this and tomorrow and the weeks and months ahead are going to be a challenge. Please continue to pray for us.
