A man has passed away after falling from his roof while decorating his home for Christmas, leaving behind two young daughters.
Joe Cocco, 31, fell from the roof of his Wisconsin home in late November and was rushed to the emergency room where it was determined that he broke his neck.
The young father went through multiple surgeries and was expected to be paralyzed from the neck down, however, his condition took a turn for the worse while he was in the hospital.
On December 6, a family member shared that Cocco had passed away on a GoFundMe page set up to raise money for his wife and two girls.
“Our hearts are stricken by the immensity of grief as we have lost an incredible husband, father, brother, son, and friend,” the update says.
“Our families have gained another guardian angel to watch over us during this unimaginable time.”
