Rachel Marco, of Norristown, started a GoFundMe page asking for donations to help support an education fund for her toddler daughter Madison following the death of her 37-year-old husband, Anthony Joseph Marco, on Jan. 20.

The GoFundMe page has received over $43,000 in education funds as of Thursday.

Raised in Willow Grove, Marco worked at American Airlines and FedEx up until his death, his obituary says.

He is survived by his wife Rachel (King) Marco, mother Kathleen (Bray) Marco, his daughter, Madison Marco, sister Megan (Marco) Hurley, and husband Steven Hurley, nephew Connor, and nieces Emma, Addison, and Kendall.
