<div>Dear Friends, Family, and Everyone Who Loves Lee,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Lee Williams, who plays so many cherished roles in our lives; father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend to so many, and whose kindness and steadfast strength have been a constant source of light in our lives – is in the fight of his life. We are painfully sad to share that Lee is battling severe pulmonary fibrosis, a devastating condition that has taken an enormous toll on his lungs and stolen away the ease of everyday moments we all take for granted.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On November 5th, Lee was hospitalized, and his hope now rests on a life-saving double lung transplant. This transplant isn’t just a procedure—it’s a lifeline, offering him the chance to embrace his loved ones, share his laughter, and savor the beauty of life once again. While it won’t grant him endless years, we are determined to make the time he does have as full of love, comfort, and joy as possible.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you’ve ever had the privilege of knowing Lee, you know he is truly one of a kind. His laughter has lifted spirits, his prayers have brought peace, and his quiet strength has been a refuge for so many. Now, it’s our turn to surround him with that same unwavering support, to show him the love he’s always so freely given to others and that he doesn’t face this journey alone.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why Lee Needs Us Now</strong>
</div>
<div>This journey is not just an emotional and physical battle—it’s a financial one, too. Lee’s condition has left him unable to live alone or maintain daily life without constant care post-transplant. Here’s how your support will make a difference:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>•	<strong>Medical Equipment:</strong> Oxygen systems, mobility aids, and other tools to keep him comfortable at home and during recovery.
</div>
<div>•	<strong>Medications: </strong>Post-transplant medications, including anti-rejection drugs, can cost upwards of $2,500 a month.
</div>
<div>•	<strong>Family Travel Expenses:</strong> Our family is committed to being by his side, but airfare, lodging, and meals quickly add up.
</div>
<div>•	<strong>Unexpected Costs: </strong>From caregiving supplies to unforeseen bills, your generosity will help lighten the load.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Every Act of Love Makes a Difference</strong>
</div>
<div>Whether you can contribute financially or not, your love matters deeply. A prayer, a kind word, a moment of encouragement—each is a gift that uplifts Lee’s spirit and reminds him of the immense community rooting for him. Lee has spent his life giving of himself to others—lifting us when we were down, celebrating our wins, and holding space for us in times of need. Now, as he faces this profound challenge, we have the chance to give back in ways that reflect the incredible man he is.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>With all our hearts,</strong> we thank you for standing with Lee in this fight. Your generosity, prayers, and love are the greatest gifts we could ask for during this time. Together, we can give him the strength to keep going, the comfort to know he is never alone, and the reassurance that he is cherished beyond measure.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with Lee and his family during this difficult time. Your generosity, prayers, and kind words mean more than you’ll ever know.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With boundless gratitude and love,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Casey Bahn (daughter), Nicole Francis (niece) &amp; The Entire Williams Family
