On Tuesday, August 26, life changed in an instant for Cecil “Junior” Cole Jr. A near-fatal motorcycle collision left him critically injured after his bike collided with a box-style truck. He was airlifted to a nearby trauma hospital, where doctors worked urgently to save his life. Junior sustained catastrophic injuries, including a severed femoral artery, a broken pelvis, a broken femur, and several other serious injuries.

Junior is so much more than the accident that now overshadows his days. He is a devoted husband and a proud father, whose world revolves around his family and his faith. Just this past June, he and his wife, Danielle, welcomed their newborn daughter into the world, while their oldest graduated from Southern Preparatory Academy and is preparing to pursue a military career.

To those who know him, Junior is the kind of man who would give you the shirt off his back without hesitation. He is deeply rooted in faith, guided by his love for God, and lives each day with kindness, humility, and a generous heart. His laughter fills a room, his steady hands build a home, and his love holds his family together.

Now, as Junior fights for his life, Danielle is carrying the weight of their world. Just three months postpartum, she is on FMLA leave from work and adjusting to life with a newborn, all while navigating the unthinkable reality of her husband in critical condition. Junior was the sole provider for their family, and without his income, Danielle is struggling to keep up with mortgage payments, household bills, and mounting medical expenses. She is balancing midnight feedings with hospital visits, praying for her husband’s healing while holding her young family together.

This fundraiser has been created to help ease the financial burden during this unimaginable time. Every dollar raised will go directly toward supporting Danielle and their children, covering essentials such as the mortgage, utilities, groceries, and overwhelming medical bills. More importantly, these funds will give Danielle the breathing room she so desperately needs to focus on what matters most: caring for her newborn daughter and standing faithfully by Junior’s side as he fights to recover.

Your generosity is more than financial aid; it is an investment in Junior’s recovery and Danielle’s strength. Together, we can lighten their load and give this family the hope, resources, and stability they need to weather this storm.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with the Cole family in their greatest time of need
