An Update on the Aldana Family
Jose Aldana, a brother of our custodian, Victor, who was shot in the head in an attempted robbery, is now being cared for in the home of their third brother. Jose is unresponsive and unable to care for himself in any way. The family is struggling to meet all of his medical needs, while also having lost their breadwinner. Jose’s 17-year-old son was with him when he was attacked. Jose and his wife, Teresa, also have a 15-year-old son.
The four youths believed to have been the attackers have been apprehended. Patricia Catalano is in regular contact with the family, and we are trying to connect them with the appropriate government resources. The Aldana family is very grateful for the contributions made to their much needed GoFundMe campaign (https://gofund.me/8a1de00d).
