2026 has been an incredibly difficult year for our friends Jeff, Julie, Kayla, and Kassidy. Over the years, our friendship has grown into something much deeper and we have truly become family.

Jeff bravely fought B cell lymphoma and went through six intensive rounds of chemotherapy. In May, he completed treatment and was in remission. For a short time, life began to feel hopeful again.

Unfortunately, that hope was short lived. Jeff’s lymphoma has returned and is now more aggressive, affecting his central nervous system including his brain and spine. He will be undergoing treatment again, bringing emotional and financial challenges that no family should have to face.

We are creating this GoFundMe to help support the family with the overwhelming medical expenses they have already faced and will continue to face. This unexpected setback has brought a great deal of sadness, as we truly believed Jeff was on the road to recovery.

Any donation, no matter the amount, would mean so much. Thank you for your kindness, support, and for standing with this family during such a difficult time.
