In February, our lives were shattered when our beautiful son, Bruno Louis Cecchini, passed away.

This October, we are walking in Bruno's honor while raising money for the Star Legacy Foundation. This is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to increase awareness, support research, promote education, and encourage advocacy and family support regarding pregnancy loss, and infant death. Star Legacy provides free virtual support groups, peer mentors, educational resources, funds lifesaving research, and advocates for changes that can help prevent future losses.

Many of these resources have been a meaningful part of our own journey, and we are honored to give back by supporting this incredible organization in Bruno's memory.

Along this journey, we've met other parents who, like us, have experienced the unimaginable. Together, we've formed a team to honor our four deeply loved babies: Bruno, Ellis, Emerson, and Joey.

We would be so grateful if you would consider making a donation in their honor. If you're able, we'd also love for you to join us as we walk in their memory on October 4, 2026. The walk is 1.1 miles around Horner Park in Chicago, IL. Having our family and friends beside us would mean the world to us. Our Team Name is FOURget-Me-Not. 

Every donation, no matter the size, helps support bereaved families, fund critical research, and bring us one step closer to preventing another family from experiencing this heartbreaking loss.

Thank you for remembering Bruno and for helping us honor the lives of these four precious babies.

With love,

Bruno’s mama & papa
