Help David Woodby: A Lifelong Servant Now in Need

Dear Friends, Family, and Kind-Hearted Strangers,

We are reaching out on behalf of David Woodby, a widower who was a loving and devoted husband, a loving father, grandfather, and faithful servant of the community who now urgently needs your help.

For over 30 years, David served as a pastor in the Lutheran Church, dedicating his life to the service of others. Whether he was counseling the sick, feeding the hungry, supporting the homeless, comforting the elderly, or ministering to the incarcerated, David gave everything he had — emotionally, spiritually, and financially — to make the lives of others better.

Now, David is fighting two devastating battles: Parkinson’s disease and Prostate Cancer.

These cruel conditions have robbed him of his independence and drained what little was left of his retirement savings. The costs of his care have skyrocketed, and he now faces over $100,000 in medical bills, various other debts, living expenses, and other essential costs. He can no longer work, and his modest income is not nearly enough to keep up.

David gave his life to those in need. He stood by people at their lowest moments. Now, in his most vulnerable time, we’re hoping to show him the same compassion he so freely gave to others.

How You Can Help
We are hoping to raise $100,000 to:

Cover medical care and specialist appointments

Provide basic living expenses, such as housing, food, and hygiene

Relieve the crushing debt that continues to accumulate

Every donation — no matter how small — brings us closer to easing David’s burden and giving him the peace and dignity he deserves in this stage of life.

If you’re unable to donate, you can still help tremendously by sharing this campaign with your network. Your prayers, thoughts, and messages of support also mean the world to him and his family.

Let’s rally around this man who spent his life lifting others up. Let’s give back to someone who never hesitated to give.

From the bottom of our hearts,
Thank you.

With gratitude,
The Family of David Woodby
