Donations can be made at Scotia Bank, using transit number 70102 and account 0188522. Ernest Arsenault, a former Getty neighbour who set up the trust fund, is overwhelming with the response from a caring community. "Tt is touching that so many people care," Arsenault said on Tuesday, adding that more than $1,200 was deposited in the trust fund in the first 24 hours, and tellers at the Mill Street Scotiabank branch were "very busy" taking donations on Monday. Arsenault said knowing the family's tough financial situation, and not able to pay for the funeral himself, he thought the least he could do was arrange for donations. On December 17, Manny's Roadhouse on Mill Street is hosting a ben- efit for the Getty family. With a minimum dona- tion of $10 at the door, the event will feature live en- tertainment from Heavy Inc., a band that is donat- ing its time.

"We are a family busi- ness that wants to help another family," Nick Propopapas said. Manny Propopapas said downtown businesses have donated items for door and raffle prizes, and they are looking for additional do- nations and volunteers.
