Dear friends, family, and compassionate supporters,

It is with heavy hearts that we share the devastating news: our beloved Alvan Bohannon—devoted husband to Julie and proud father to Alicia—has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. This life-altering diagnosis has upended their world, and as Alvan has reached the end of his treatment options, we are asking for your financial, emotional, and spiritual support.

Alvan has faced this unimaginable journey with remarkable courage and determination, enduring multiple rounds of treatment while continuing to work and provide for his family. Now, more than ever, he needs us to rally around him.

Alvan is more than just my brother-in-law—he’s a loving husband, a dedicated father, a caring brother, and a loyal friend. His warmth, humor, and strength have touched countless lives. Even in the face of pain and uncertainty, he continues to inspire us all with his resilience and grace.

Julie is balancing the impossible: working, managing the household, and being Alvan’s on call caregiver. Alicia, while working and carrying the weight of her dad’s health, is also cherishing every moment she can with her dad. As you can imagine, the emotional and financial toll is immense.

We’ve created this GoFundMe to help ease the burden of medical expenses, home care, and other costs during this heartbreaking chapter. Our hope is to give Alvan and his family the space to focus on what truly matters—being together and creating lasting memories.

Every donation, no matter the amount, makes a meaningful difference. If you’re unable to give, sharing this campaign with your network is just as powerful. Thank you for your love, prayers, and support during this incredibly difficult time.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Amy Bernardon and the Bohannon Family
