Catastrophic Loss
New York
Created September 18th, 2024

On September 16th, 2024 the Sheehan family lost their matriarch Millie and her daughter-in-law Diana in a tragic car accident. Lost together in an instant, this has left a close family without their Grandmother, Aunt, Mothers, and Wives.

Diana, mother of the youngest Sheehan, a 19mo boy named Kiernan, is the wife of Millie's son Francis. Millie, has three additional grandchildren, Caiden, Saoirse, & Aisling, from her daughter Christine.

Many have reached out expressing their desire to support this family in their most dire of circumstances. We have set up this fundraiser to help alleviate, and lift, any unforeseen burdens on the family while allowing them the time & space to grieve, heal, and remember. 

We thank you for your thoughts, prayers, words of encouragement, and support.

Last night we put out this fundraiser with a modest goal in order to help this family in a small way. In less than 24 hours family, friends, and strangers have surpassed that initial goal. You are all so amazing and we thank you and your continued efforts to spread this fund and its noble results.

Dear Francis, Although we only met a few times at Democratic Party events and I’ve seen you around occasionally, I was deeply saddened to hear about Millie and her daughter-in-law's passing. When I looked back at MIllie's last email regarding the recent Greenburgh Democratic Convention, it was hard to believe she was truly gone. In a time when politics can become so contentious, especially in a year like this, and party dynamics can turn challenging, people like Millie stood out. She was dedicated to the hard, often underappreciated work of organizing and guiding the process. It’s this kind of commitment that allows us to have the messy yet beautiful political movements that give our country hope and help move us forward. I will miss her emails, but I will now hold close to my heart the memory of those, like Millie, who work tirelessly behind the scenes, sticking to the facts and delivering the crucial information we all need. My deepest condolences to you and her loved ones during this difficult time. Sincerely, Kamran Saliani Town of Greenburgh Dem District Leader, ED.-31
