Comfort and Care for Marty English

Dear friends and family,

We’re reaching out with heavy hearts to share that our beloved Marty English—an incredible brother, cousin, and loyal friend—has been diagnosed with terminal kidney cancer. The cancer has metastasized throughout his body, and Marty is currently focusing on comfort, care, and quality time with those who mean the most to him.

This GoFundMe has been created privately and with deep love to help ease the financial strain Marty and his closest family are facing. The weight of medical expenses, transportation, and the support needed to maintain Marty’s continued comfort has been overwhelming. Our goal is to raise $20,000 to ensure he can remain surrounded by peace, care, and connection—without the added stress of mounting costs. Any remaining funds will be thoughtfully used to cover future needs and arrangements, ensuring Marty’s wishes are honored with love and dignity.

If you know Marty, you know he hasn’t lost his sense of humor—he’s still cracking jokes, rolling his eyes at our fussing, and managing to make us laugh even now. That spirit is exactly why we’re doing all we can to support him with the same warmth and light he’s always brought into our lives.

If you are able to contribute, we’re deeply grateful. Any amount truly helps. If not, your thoughts, prayers, and good energy for Marty are just as valuable.

Marty has always shown up for others with quiet strength and a quick wit. Now we’re doing our best to show up for him.

With love and appreciation,

Marty’s Family
