We lost my dad, Dominick Anastasi, on Nov 3. He always put everyone else first, and he'd give you the shirt off his back. Here he is in his Flyers jersey with his great-grandbaby. ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ–ค He had no life insurance, so we're raising money for his funeral and to help my mom. Please give or share if you can. ๐Ÿ™ gofund.me/95d6bf66c

Flyers at MSG tonight. ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ–ค Dad would've been locked in from puck drop โ€” lifelong Flyers fan, that's him in the jersey in the photo. We lost him Nov 3. No life insurance โ€” we're raising money for his funeral and for my mom. Please share or give if you can. ๐Ÿ™ gofund.me/95d6bf66c
The Man I Call Dad โค๏ธ At 8:47 a.m. on November 3, my mother called me with the news I had been dreading. My dad had passed away. This is his story โ€” and why he was my father in every way that mattered. ๐Ÿงต

On October 30, he told me about his first Phillies game โ€” Connie Mack Stadium, 1969, with his father and cousin Pete. I played him one of his favorites, "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me." He smiled through the whole song. I helped him drink some water โ€” like when I was a little boy, getting him glass after glass.

My dad didn't give me life, but he helped teach me how to live it. He didn't have to be there. He chose to be โ€” every day, for 32 years. We lost him with no life insurance, so we're raising money for his funeral and for my mom. If his story moved you, please share or give: gofund.me/95d6bf66c ๐Ÿ™ Rest peacefully, Dad. Until we meet again. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

He tried to get life insurance and was denied because of a bad heart. So there's nothing there to cover his funeral or to help my mom after. That's why we're asking. If you knew Dominick, you know he'd have given you the shirt off his back โ€” he took care of everybody else first.

From the bottom of our hearts โ€” thank you to everyone who's donated, shared, or just read his story. Every share puts this in front of someone new. For my mom, and for him: thank you. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ–ค gofund.me/95d6bf66c
