The late Tony Manuylo was tragically killed in a motorcycle accident last night. Tony, a 35-year-old resident of Sioux Falls, was a devoted husband and father, leaving behind a grieving family of nine children and his beloved wife. He was the sole provider for his family, making this loss even more devastating.
Tony was known for his dedication, wit, and charm. He had a passion for mechanics and was in the process of opening his own business. His death has left a significant void in the lives of those who knew and loved him.
A GoFundMe campaign has been organized by Ashleigh Nordstrom, a close friend of the Manuylo family, to support Tony’s wife and children during this difficult time. Ashleigh describes Tony as a "reserved yet witty, charming dedicated father" and emphasizes the family’s urgent need for financial assistance to cover funeral expenses and future needs. As of now, the campaign has raised $50 out of a $20,000 goal.
The community has expressed an outpouring of support and condolences on social media. Toma Castillo, Tony’s sibling, shared a heartfelt message: "Please keep my family in your prayers! We lost our amazing, selfless, and kindhearted brother early this morning. He was such a good man!! If you have it in your heart to donate to help his wife and kids during this difficult time, anything helps! Thank you!"
