Gafford Family Tornado Relief Fund

This is the story of a very kind, considerate, loving lady who has always gone above and beyond in her community during any time of need for others. She always does her very best to put donated food out in bags at the mailbox or to take food to the homes of  ones whom have lost a loved one. She donates what little she may have to any fundraisers in the community for others in need. She is now in need of assistance due to the tornado that ripped through her home on February 15, 2016. Her name is Mrs. Jamie Eileen Gafford of Century, Florida. Mrs. Gafford has been the sole caregiver for her son, Tony who is a quadriplegic from an auto accident 18 years ago when a drunk driver hit him head on. Mrs. Gafford had a specialized equipped van with an automatic wheel chair lift that was totally destroyed by the tornado. This was her only means of transporting her son to his doctor appointments, which are quite often. She did have insurance but it will not be near enough for her to replace the vehicle nor to purchase a new lift and have it installed. The insurance company is not covering the lift due to the fact that it was added to the vehicle. This is a very proud lady that has always tried her best to take care of everything on her own while caring for her son but she now needs our assistance. Attached are pictures of the van.  Any assistance no matter how small would be greatly appreciated…now is the time we can come together and pay it forward to her. My name is Sgt. Jack Coppenger & I work with Mrs. Gafford's other son & daughter-in-law, Donny & Gayle Gafford at Century Correctional Institution in Century, FL. Thank you for helping us stand in the gap for this great cause and family, God bless!
