Support James Pale and Family

Donation protected
This GoFundMe is being organized by Terry Butler and John Heffernan.

James Pale, a tremendous educator, coach, father, husband, mentor, and friend needs our prayers and support. On April 9th, James complained of extreme pain shooting in his leg which ended up being a blood clot. While in the hospital to treat the blood clot, doctors discovered he had a lower aorta tear which resulted in loss of blood flow to his left kidney, and ultimately loss of function in that kidney. James has undergone 12 surgeries in the past 4 weeks to control the bleeding in the stomach and intestines.

The Pale family could use your support at this time. Mele is always by his side and the kids are a constant presence at the hospital. All funds raised will help the family with everyday living expenses during this unforeseen long-term hospital stay in addition to medical bills not covered by insurance and loss of income.

Those that are related to James by blood, by friendship, or by football know that family is the most important thing to him and that if you know him, he considers you family. Let's take care of the people we call FAMILY. As James continues to undergo procedures in the hospital and with the anticipated long recovery, the Pale family will need long-term support.

Much Love,
Terry Butler and John Heffernan
