Fundraiser Launched For Barnegat Dad Killed In Crash

BARNEGAT, NJ — After a Barnegat father was killed in a crash last week, a fundraiser has been launched to support his family after the loss of their loved one.

At about 8 p.m. on Feb. 2, the Barnegat First Aid Squad responded to a crash on Route 539, the agency said.

Four were taken to area hospitals, the First Aid Squad said.

But unfortunately, a father of two was killed, according to a GoFundMe created to support his wife and children.

"Robyn and the girls have cuts and bruises that will heal," the fundraiser's organizer, Jaime Ramaglia, wrote. "But the pain of losing their Dad/Husband will never go away."

The couple had been together since they were kids, according to the GoFundMe, and the mother was a stay at home mom.

"So many things in their lives are about to change. So many things to worry about," the GoFundMe says. "We hope to make finances one thing less."

As of Monday morning, it has raised more than $13,000 of its $20,000 goal.

This was the second fatal crash in Barnegat that day. Earlier, a 94-year-old Howell man died after hitting a concrete toll plaza divider on the Parkway, police told Patch. Read more: NJ Man, 94, Dies In Barnegat Garden State Parkway Crash: State Police
