The 34-year-old passed away recently had "struggles and demons, and unfortunately some of these were too much for him to handle," said organizers of a GoFundMe that had raised more than $4,600 as of Monday morning.
The funds will go toward his beloved daughters, Aubrey, 4, and 7-year-old Delilah.
"He had the biggest heart and would do anything for anyone even give a stranger the shirt off his own back," the campaign says.
"He loved his little girls with everything he had and would do anything for their happiness."
A memorial service for the Jersey City native was held May 4.
