Hi, my name is Fred Ingham, and I am a great friend of Sam and his family. Sam has been in the hospital for the past 90 days due to multiple illnesses, and it is unclear if or when he will get out.

Sam is a fantastic husband, father and member of his community. He is the Pastor of Latter Glory Ministries (https://lattergloryministries.org) that serves many in his community. He is directly responsible for bi-weekly food drives to help feed the homeless. He also is involved in finding shelter for the homeless and other charities.

In addition, Sam runs two businesses that employ many in his community and that support his ministry, multiple charities, and his family. He is a real "go-getter," but more importantly, he is selfless in success.

While Sam has been in the hospital, he has continued to run the businesses the best he can. He has relied on his family and friends for support. As of the past week or so, it has become increasingly difficult for him in this effort.

Because of this, his family and I are setting up this gofundme to raise money to help cover expenses so that his family does not have to worry as they step up to keep the businesses and the ministry running.

The Byrd family appreciates any donation.

Thank you, and God Bless!
