Ryan Wilno was finally home from Iraq.
The huge welcome for the Marine Lance Corporal in Evesham Township, New Jersey meant the world to his mother, Betsy and his father Ron. Just hours later, 43 year old Ron Wilno died from cardiac arrest, leaving the family devastated emotionally and financially.
Now the same people who put on Ryan’s homecoming are trying to help again by raising money for the funeral and future expenses.
They've set up the following fund for donations:
Ronald Wilno Memorial Fund
