Benefit Scheduled for Seidel Family Today

A pasta dinner and basket raffle benefit will be held today to benefit the Seidel family, who is still overcoming the loss of Kyle Seidel, who was murdered in December.

This evening there will be a pasta dinner and basket raffle fundraiser to benefit Kate Seidel and her family at the Waterford Community Center.

On Friday, Dec. 21, Kyle Seidel’s body was found in the parking lot of Waterford’s Family Bowl, and his death was later ruled a homicide by gun shot wound to the neck. The murder left Seidel without a husband and the couple’s three young children without a father.

This evening, there will be pasta benefit at the Waterford Community Center from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. The cost for the dinner is $5 for children and $10 for adults.
