A Bridgeport family who recently lost their loved one to cancer is asking for the public's help finishing a job he started.
The Thomas Merton Center in Bridgeport feeds thousands of people every month. During the pandemic, city officials say it performed the vital function of keeping many families from going hungry.
Anthony Mobilio, who passed away from cancer in January, was a big supporter of the Merton Center.
Mobilio was the owner of Mobilio & Son Heating and Cooling. The last job he agreed to do was to install a new boiler for the charity.
