This is Vic from Mississippi’s story…

"Joseph “Vic” Holiday is a United States Marine Corp Veteran who lives in Florence, MS. My mom, and my siblings and all of his grandchildren are his whole world! He has worked his whole life to make sure he provided effortlessly! We always had food on the table and everything that we needed and has always made sure his grandchildren have had everything they needed!

Shortly after enlisting into the service he met my mom and they have now been married 42 years, with 5 child and over 20 grandchildren!

After his service, he spent over 40 years working in customer service and shining the light amongst his coworkers, and customers and made a lasting impact on everyone he met! My mom battles with several health issues so he has always had to work extra hard to provide but has always done it with a smile and without complaint!

In January of 2026 he unfortunately had a stroke that left him spending 3 weeks in the hospital and almost 2 in rehabilitation! He lost full mobility of his right side but after therapy, was able to regain some enough to be able to walk but not without a cane or help! He has no mobility to his right arm! He is still positive that one day he will! He even had a positive impact on everyone he met during his stroke by being completely positive and just grateful to have been able to live through it!

Now, he is facing a new world where he can’t work or even do repairs that are needed to keep his home safe and in full working order for himself and my mom! My mom is now having to be his caregiver and can’t do repairs or even care for him properly due to their home not being easily accessible due to him now being disabled! Please help take the burden off of him now not being able to provide financially or do much needed repairs to their home so that him and my mom can enjoy the rest of their years without much stress! Much Love and Blessings."
