In March 2024, our dear friend and community member Grady Mitchell was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer. This aggressive form of cancer is a significant and serious challenge. Despite this, Grady continues to show his incredible strength, humor, and positive spirit. However, this is undeniably a tough time for him and his family.
For many years, Grady has dedicated his life to improving the lives of others. He has touched countless people with his kindness and compassion, particularly through his work supporting individuals in prison and helping them reintegrate back into the community. This cause is very close to his heart. Unfortunately, the financial burden of medical care and time away from work have had a substantial impact.
Sharing this diagnosis has also been extremely difficult for Grady. He doesn’t want anyone to worry or feel sadness because of his diagnosis, as he focuses his energy on his family and treatment. Grady has always cherished joyful connections and making the world a better place. If you want to express your care, please send him a card, email, or other written correspondence, understanding that he may not have the capacity to respond.
Please consider giving what you can to help Grady and his family during this challenging time. Though he is uncomfortable with receiving support, he has allowed us to share this fundraising link. Grady requests that this link not be shared on social media but rather via email with those who may want to contribute. The funds will go directly to Grady and his beloved wife, Pat. While we cannot cure him or alleviate his hardship, contributing funds is a tangible way we can help.
We are grateful to share a connection with Grady and to be part of this supportive community. Now is the time to come together and support Grady and his family.
With gratitude and unity
