The Wood/ Hadaway families have been a large piece of the Brackney community and On December 1st, 2022, The Wood’s lost a very important member of their family. In the aftermath of this unfortunate loss, Chris leaves behind his loving wife, Mandy and two children, Wyatt and Lily. We ask in this time of grief that we can come together, all communities involved in their lives, to help them.

The Olive Garden family has been a part of Mandy’s life for over 20 plus years and they have started a GoFundMe page in honor of the Wood Family. The Brackney, Choconut side of the border has been there for them even longer, And right now they need your help! In only 3 days time we have managed to raise almost $5,000, but it isn’t enough. This is the time where we don’t want Mandy to have to worry about anything except grieving and supporting their children through this terrible time. This time of year is hard for most and we hope to ease the burden of this loss by offering what we all can,which is support. Whether that be financial, emotional, or even a hot meal.

A dollar goes a long way and right now each one counts. As well as the donation page we are setting up a Meal Train to send the family home with prepped meals, the link is also provided. Any questions regarding how to donate or what to make can be answered by Denise Rossi, Chris Roberts, Chelsea Schmidt ,and Cortney Anthony. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to all the supportive communities involved in their lives.

Thank you! Happy Holidays!
