EDIT: Thank you to everyone who has donated. We are truly grateful for your generosity. We have heard from a few people that they are having issues sending donations to Wallkill Group’s Venmo account. If you are also experiencing these issues, please consider sending to -Brennan-4 and we will insure your contribution is transferred in your name. We apologize for any issues and thank you again. 🙏🏻
As some of you may know, one our beloved friends and coworkers here at Wallkill Group became severely ill while on a fishing trip with friends.
Rich Howell was admitted to a hospital in Syracuse, NY one month ago due to complications from bronchitis and pneumonia. While he has been downgraded from the ICU, he has been on a ventilator and dialysis since admission. Each day brings its highs and lows, but the hospital staff is working to slowly wean him off the machines. He has a long road ahead to recovery.
With the added stress of his illness, Rich’s family has been navigating living three hours away from home. A fundraiser is being held November 23rd to help cover costs of hotels, food, etc. We felt compelled to help raise funds to offset their expenses. Please consider donating to the venmo link below. WG will be matching the amount of money raised. Any amount is appreciated.

If you know Rich, you know he may be little, but he is fierce (and goofy and kind and thoughtful.) Please keep Rich and his family in your thoughts. We are missing him.
