On September 5, 2025, our dear friend Paul Clarke suffered a massive stroke that changed his life in an instant. At just 47 years old, Paul is a devoted father, husband, friend, loyal community servant & the BEST baseball dad EVER!

Paul has always been the one to step up for others. He is a proud Christian, a lifelong baseball fan, and for years he volunteered as his kids’ baseball coach, running the local league with dedication and love. He’s the kind of man who gives generously of his time, heart, and energy—whether it’s cheering on his boys, supporting a neighbor in need, or showing up for his friends and family.

Paul’s proudest role is at home: as a loving father to his two boys Bali & Zaq from his first marriage, and as a newlywed excited to welcome a baby GIRL on the way with his wife Irina. His family is his greatest joy & they need him more than ever!

Now, Paul faces the hardest challenge of his life….surviving a stroke & getting stronger!! He survived the initial stroke surgery, but the road ahead is long. Paul must learn to walk, speak, and perform basic functions again.

We are asking for your help. We are raising funds to:

• Cover the cost of inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation

• Provide speech, occupational, and physical therapy so Paul can regain independence

• Pay for specialized medical equipment and home care support

• Offset hospital bills and essential living costs during his recovery

Every dollar makes a difference in helping Paul fight his way back to the life he loves—with his wife, his children, and his community!

Please consider donating and sharing Paul’s story. If you can’t give financially, your prayers, encouragement, and shares are just as important!

Paul has always gone above and beyond for others. Now, it’s our turn to be there for him & his family during this diffficult time!

He is a man with a contagious personality that lights up a room (or baseball field) when he walks in!!!

Thank you for your kindness and support.
