HOLLYWOOD, Fla. ā Anne Marie Dolce is grieving after a tragedy turned her family of seven into a family of four.
Dolceās two-year-old son Tyler, her 5-year-old daughter Emmie and her 41-year-old husband Jean Wisly Fontus drowned in their house pool on Feb. 25, in Hollywood.
āSupport is why Iām still sitting here. Weāve received. Iāve received overwhelming support,ā Dolce said.
The Hollywood Police Department released the 911 calls she made after she found them in the pool. She told a dispatcher she had pulled one of the children out and was going to run to pull out another.
Flowers, balloons, and candles were at the house along South Highland Drive near Adams Street, police said. Dolce said she is also finding some comfort in the images of good memories.
āWe took a lot of videos, a lot of photos every day,ā Dolce said and she added a family video on her GoFundMeās Emmie, Tyler and Wes Memorial. There were over $29,000 in donations on Tuesday afternoon.
Dolce said Tyler was very playful and he liked to run around. She said Emmie had a sweet, loving voice, and her husband was full of love.
āAll full of love. Thatās the only word I can use to describe is love,ā Dolce said.
Detectives are still investigating the drownings.
