Nominator: Amy Rutledge
Nominee: Jodi and Dan Gastaldo
Their Submission: My brother and sister-in-law, Jodi and Dan Gastaldo, had to go through something no parents ever deserve to go through – losing her beloved daughter Maggie to an awful disease. She fought long and hard and ultimately lost her battle and went to Heaven. The family has been through so much and will be reminded of the pain again this September when Maggie passed.
Maggie’s grandma is a florist and she always loved sending and receiving flowers for all sorts of events. This could be her way of getting to send flowers to her parents, two brothers (Ben and Noah) and little sister (Lily) that she never got to meet.
She also never got to fulfill her Make-A-Wish, so I am making this wish to bring some joy and beauty into their lives and honor Miss Maggie.
