DEDICATED TO DURHAM

On November 3, 2024, Durham Bley had a catastrophic injury falling 16 feet from a deer stand while hunting, incurring a severe spinal injury. His injuries include cervical fractures, traumatic thoracic spinal cord injury, and post-concussive issues. Following his acute trauma hospitalization, he was transferred to a hospital in Atlanta for rehabilitation for both recovery and adaptation to these life-changing injuries.

Durham was raised in Greenwood, SC, and graduated from Greenwood High School in 2017, where he was very athletic and played varsity soccer. He graduated from The Citadel in 2021 with a business degree and was a member of Romeo Company. Since graduation, he has worked towards becoming a licensed residential builder by apprenticing with his father and starting his own business. He has always been an avid hunter and fisherman and has spent much quality time with his father and friends in these activities.
