Wow, what a great story! The world needs more people like them.

It's refreshing during these difficult times to hear of people helping
one another 🙂 Thanks for sharing the article.

I just had the opportunity to stay at the Florian Villa and I cannot say enough nice things about this couple and their mission to help families of fallen firefighters and injured soldiers.

Beyond being great people, they have an incredible property. I made a last minute trip to St. John to get away from it all and it had to be more than serendipity that I wound up at the Florian Villa. I am not sure whether it was their great service, the gorgeous house, the fab meals, or their expertise about everything to do on the island that won me over.

Please help them spread the word about their work to help the families of fallen firefighters and injured soldiers.
