In her tribute, McPhee expressed her deep love for Ransone and thanked him for the "greatest gifts" – their children, six-year-old son Jack and four-year-old daughter Violet. The actor was celebrated for his extensive career, including memorable roles in "The Wire," "Sinister," "The Black Phone," and "It Chapter Two." His work as Chester "Ziggy" Sobotka on "The Wire" showcased his unique talent and Baltimore roots.

The fundraiser has already garnered significant donations towards its $120,000 goal.
