Terry Demming, 7, played baseball for the Montclair Bulldogs and was known for a "high-spirited love of sports and the outdoors," the fundraiser's organizer said.  

To honor the memory of the young athlete, the GoFundMe campaign is raising money to install a bench near the Glenfield Park diamond to "give family, friends, and all visitors a spot to connect in a place where he experienced great joy - fitting for an exuberant boy" who easily made friends, organizers said.
