As mentioned, the fundraiser for the late Manchester man raised over $201,000 within three days of its launch, with thousands of people making the donations. The campaign organizer, Ericka Meyer, who is Jeffrey Boyce’s sister-in-law, had previously urged everyone to support her sister and two nephews. She wrote: 

“No one should ever have to go through this. And the last thing she should have to be worrying about is money! Unfortunately, Jeff recently started a new job and he had no life insurance. Now she faces these daily struggles of losing the love of her life and trying to raise these boys, all while trying to figure out how she is going to make her day-to-day work.” 

After receiving overwhelming support from the community, Ericka acknowledged the same in an update and penned: 

“Wow, words cannot express how thankful I am for all of the love and support the community has given to myself and my family during this terrible time. I am beyond overwhelmed with all of the money you guys are donating, this makes my broken heart so happy!” 

She reflected upon the heartbreaking death of Jeffrey Boyce and continued:

“Watching my sister and my nephew's these past few days have been terrible. I don't wish this upon anybody. I feel so helpless, but seeing this fundraiser grow and grow is truly an amazing thing!” 

Ericka concluded: 

“Laura, Jeff, and those boys are so loved and I truly appreciate you all from the bottom of my heart and I know Laura is just as thankful for all of this. Thank you again everybody for all your kind words and support.” 

She urged everyone to keep sharing the campaign to support Laura and her family. The radio personality also remembered her late husband in a Facebook post on Monday. Laura and Jeffrey Boyce tied the knot in 2006 and share two sons, Parker (born in 2011) and Dylan (born in 2015).
