On Christmas Eve, our lives changed in an instant when my dad, Jeff Tatum, was in a devastating accident on his gator while at the farm. He suffered severe brain damage and is now fighting in the neuro trauma ICU.

Jeff has always been the backbone of our family — a tireless worker, a devoted husband and father, and someone who would never ask for help. He was the sole provider, and now my mom Lisa is facing not only the emotional toll of this tragedy, but the overwhelming burden of medical bills and everyday living expenses.

Right now, we are asking our community to help us do what Jeff has always done for others — show up with love and support. Any donation would mean more than words can express. And if you’re unable to give financially, we ask for your prayers as we navigate the difficult days and decisions ahead.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, love, and support during this incredibly hard time.
