Our Junior Crusader hockey player, Giuseppe, was 11 years old when he lost his 13-month battle with Diffuse Midline Glioma (DMG) brain cancer on October 5, 2024. Giuseppe was passionate about World War II history, and his knowledge captivated anyone who would listen. He loved school, huskies, hockey, soccer, the Tampa Bay Lightning, and the Boston Bruins. He was obsessed with punk rock and ska music and was an avid concertgoer. He was a natural on the ice and loved playing hockey for the Junior Crusaders. Giuseppe was a player every teammate could count on. He always supported all of his fellow Crusaders, especially his younger brother. Seppe was the ultimate good-deed doer. He loved making people happy and would gladly give away what he had to make another child smile.
The Seppe Strong Benefit Fund will cover medical expenses from Seppe's hard-fought battle with DMG.
Your love, strength, and prayers mean the world to The Struppa Family during this time.
