Residents in Southern Ocean County Rally Behind a Family Tragedy

It was a family's worst nightmare. Kevin Rohrer of Manahawkin passed away on Nov. 28th. His wife Kelly, and their two children, Matthew and Madison, were devastated by the loss of their devoted husband and father. As originally reported in a recent Sandpiper article, the town is rallying behind the Family.

First, the community rallied to help decorate the Rohrer's home for the Holidays, which is something the family needed this holiday to help relieve the stress. Now there's an event this weekend that YOU can be a part of to help.

“Caroling for the Rohrer Family” will take place at the old Manahawkin Baptist Church building, now operated by the Stafford Historical Society. On Sunday, Dec. 17, from 3 to 5 p.m. The location of the church is 120 North Main St., just north of Manahawkin Lake Park.

The community is invited to participate in a Christmas sing-along, during which friends of the family will lead in the caroling.

Donations of cash and gift cards to benefit the family will be accepted.

Anybody who can’t make the event and wants to help out with a donation may call Angela Randall at 609-712-2818.
