You may recall Jonn’s post about Marine and Viet Nam veteran John Villneff last week. John took a couple of bullets sheilding his grand daughter and died as a result. I checked back to see if they had posted any info on donations to his funeral fund and found that they had never updated the story to provide that information. I contacted the reporter, Amy Andrews and she provided me this link for anyone interested in donating to help defray the funeral costs. The donation site was put up by the funeral home but if you’d prefer to send a check the link above also gives the address of the funeral home. They will only be collecting donations through the provided link until Thursday. The funeral is today and as of this posting they have raised no money through the website…
BTW, the police caught one of the little turd burglers…
A statement from police said a “male suspect” was in custody following tips from the public.
Update: Mailing address….
Swanson Funeral Home
806 E Grand Blvd
Detroit, MI 48207
