A ‘Dear Abby’ for the down and out

“Within a few weeks, Dimiceli showed up on her doorstep. They talked for a while, and then he offered to pay one month’s rent as well as her outstanding gas and electric bills. He also went to the local grocery store and stocked the family’s empty refrigerator.

“I was shocked,” Cervantes said. “I feel relieved. The kids are getting tired of macaroni cheese and Ramen soup every night.”

It was just another day’s work for Dimiceli, a 60-year-old real estate broker whose weekly column in the Lake Geneva Regional News focuses on people in dire straits. Through his column and his nonprofit, The Time Is Now To Help, Dimiceli has provided about 500 people a year with food, rent, utilities and other necessities. “
